Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Birchwood High School Full time

We try to ensure that every Birchwood geographer understands the interconnectedness of humans and the environment and that they are equipped with the skills to tackle the world's future problems. We are looking for someone who can contribute to this aim by inspiring our students and staff.

Geography is currently taught across KS3 to KS5 at Birchwood High School, and the department prides itself on providing a broad and inventive program of study that is applicable to students in the 21st century. Our curriculum is as broad and balanced as the national curriculum but designed with our specific learners in mind, we combine study of the local area with national and international case studies and students particularly enjoy topics like 'Risky World' and 'Changing China'. We also try to provide lots of practical experiences for our students, there is fieldwork embedded for all year groups, sometimes conducted in the local area, sometimes further afield in places like London and Norfolk.

Geography is one of the more popular GCSEs and A Levels within the school, we typically have 5 GCSE groups per year and two A Level groups per year. A large part of this success is due to our strong KS3 curriculum provision and our fantastic teachers.

We are currently seeking to employ a well-qualified and passionate teacher to join our Geography department. The successful candidate will be an enthusiastic and inspirational practitioner with excellent subject knowledge of KS3 through to KS5 and who wants to play a full role within the department.

For more information about the Humanities Faculty and the curriculum maps please visit the school website (here). If you have any further questions about this post, please feel free to email the Head of Faculty, Mrs H Walsh on

To apply, please ensure that when completing the online application form you include in your statement any relevant experience to date, your values, how you would make a difference to student outcomes and why you want to be part of the Birchwood Community.

Applications should be submitted using the school platform no later than 9.00am on Monday, 20th May 2024. Interviews will be held on Thursday, 23rd May 2024.

If you would like to find out more about the role and/or arrange an informal visit to the school, please contact Louisa Atherton directly.
