We are looking for an energetic and passionate teacher to join us on a temporary basis to cover maternity leave from Easter 2024. While the teaching commitment in History is part time, we would be able to offer a full-time role and incorporate periods of cover for the right candidate. (ECT's will be considered for the role).
You would be expected to teach History to KS3, KS4 and KS5 students. Previous experience of teaching KS3 and KS4 is essential.
Huntington is an 11-18 co-educational comprehensive school with a Sixth Form taking our total student numbers to approximately 1516, which includes over 300 students in the Sixth Form. Our students achieve excellent results, year-in, year-out, both at GCSE and A-level.
In Oct 2017, Ofsted rated the school outstanding in all areas. That judgment is a reflection of a lot of hard work, but only forms part of what makes Huntington so special. As a school, we by no means rest on our laurels, but continually strive to be better.
Join us at Huntington and benefit from:
- great training where we do everything we can to help you develop your practice;
- caring colleagues & wonderful students; and
- a culture which values respect, honesty and kindness.
The school’s approach to teachers’ professional development is exceptional.

National Research School
We are a designated Research School. Huntington plays a crucial role in this DfE initiative and will provide colleagues with great professional development opportunities.
Research Schools aim to lead the way in the use of evidence-based practice. Through the network we share what they know about putting research into practice, and support schools in their region to make better use of evidence to inform their teaching and learning so that they really make a difference in the classroom.
Becoming a Research School is an exciting development that will help us to support teachers and school leaders in our region, and nationally, at a time of turmoil and increasingly challenging curricula and assessment. We see our role as providing support tools and training to better inform school improvement and improve student outcomes.
"The school has a well-thought-out professional development programme for staff, which is supported effectively by the Research School. As a result, staff are experts in their subject areas. The school ensures that staff are supported in their development and learning. Staff apply relevant subject and pedagogical research. This benefits all pupils." - Ofsted Nov 2023
