Head of Department for History

Whitworth Park is a warm, welcoming and hardworking community striving for 'Excellence for Everyone'. We want children to leave school having maximised their academic progress but also with the social and personal skills needed to extract the maximum from what the world has to offer them.

You have the opportunity to join us at an exciting time as we continue to focus on ensuring we deliver quality learning which is engaging, challenging and enjoyable for all our students. Visitors to our school are always impressed by the balance of high standards and exceptional relationships. We expect everyone in our school to achieve the very best they can within a friendly and welcoming environment which inspired them to reach their full potential, no matter what their abilities or talents. To support this we have some very clear aims. They are;

• to provide inspirational and aspirational learning through outstanding teaching
• to encourage all our students to take responsibility for their own learning and achieve their full potential
• to provide a curriculum that meets the individual needs of all students
• to pursue excellence for everyone and celebrate each student's achievements
• to prepare our students for adult life and employment in a rapidly changing world
• to develop close links with our local community
• to develop and maintain a close partnership with parents and carers, ensuring their support, pride and confidence in the school

As a school, we have high expectations of ourselves and that is applied to all our students because they are here to learn. Whitworth Park will continue to grow and go from strength to strength, with committed staff and excellent  facilities. We are proud of our school and will ensure we do all we can to recognise and celebrate individual student achievements.
