This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the premier co-educational boarding schools in the country, which has an impressive academic profile. The magnificent 250-acre site just outside Wimborne in Dorset offers an inspirational working environment where pupils and staff are committed, motivated, collaborative and willing to learn.

We wish to appoint, for September 2024, a graduate teacher with a passion for History and an ability to communicate it compellingly at all levels to join our enthusiastic and successful History department.
