We will welcome applications from newly qualified teachers or more experienced teachers who are seeking an opportunity to develop their teaching skills further.

What the school offers its staff

Psychology at DHSB has gone from strength-to-strength, with popularity increasing. The subject’s profile within the school means that it attracts a large number of high ability students who thrive when challenged. We currently have two A level classes in Year 12 and Year 13 with students being taught for five hours each week.

A significant proportion of students go on to study psychology-related degrees at university.

For an informal discussion with Dan Roberts, Headteacher, contact Sarah Nicholson, Head’s PA, at sarah.nicholson@dhsb.org.
