Teacher of History

We are seeking to appoint a Teacher of History to join our thriving Humanities Department, which encompasses History, Geography and Religious Studies.

The successful candidate will be an excellent teacher, capable of enthusing students of all abilities. They will join a vibrant and high-performing interdisciplinary team, and be passionate about bringing History to life for the students they teach. History is a very popular subject at our school, with many students choosing to study it at GCSE and A-Level. In return for your passion, commitment and drive, we offer a highly supportive working environment, students who are intellectually curious and keen to learn, and outstanding continued professional development opportunities, including a first-class ECT support package. Our Humanities Department benefits from modern accommodation, and all Humanities teachers have their own classrooms.

King's Academy Easthampstead Park is a vibrant school which prides itself on holding traditional values. Our school culture marries high academic expectations with excellent pastoral care and support. The concept of community is at the very heart of our vision; we believe in a three-way partnership between parents, teachers and students, and are proud of our setting and the local community. Teaching and learning drives everything we do. An action-research-based approach to teaching and learning has been central to our improvement journey in recent years, and we wholeheartedly believe in investing in staff's continued professional development in the same way that we expect our teachers to passionately invest in our students.

This is a very exciting time to join us. In November 2022, we joined King's Group Academies (KGA). This has created excellent opportunities for teachers to share ideas and approaches across schools, for the benefit of our students.

At our last OFSTED inspection (November 2021), we were rated as 'Good' in all areas and the inspection team noted that:

"Pupils enjoy coming to their happy and inclusive school. There is a strong ethos of mutual respect, courtesy and care for others."

"Pupils behave well in lessons and around school. They value the educational opportunities that they receive and want to succeed. Knowing their teachers have high expectations and want the very best for them encourages pupils to take pride in their work. Pupils confidently ask for help when they need it."

We aspire to be rated 'Outstanding', driven by a core belief that all of our students deserve nothing but the best possible teaching and support in order to be happy, healthy and successful. We aim to deliver the best quality teaching and learning in a school where staff and students have respect for, and pride in themselves, their school and their community.

If you feel you have the necessary skills, mindset and determination to join us on our journey towards 'outstanding,' we would very much like to hear from you. Visits to the school prior to application are warmly welcomed.
