Teacher of History

Teacher of History        

Required for September 2018 

Full Time, 1 Year in the first instance.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a highly skilled enthusiastic team player to join the Global Zone and particularly the History Team at Walkden High School.

Walkden High School is a wonderful community; brilliant, able, hard-working students, committed staff, and amazingly supportive parents.

We are proud to provide an academic education within a comprehensive setting. We are passionate about caring for our students and in doing so we aim for the STARS: Sensible, Thoughtful, Ambitious, Respectful & Supportive – qualities you will display to inspire our students.

We need to work together to get the best possible outcomes for all our young people, but especially our most able and our disadvantaged pupils. You will join a committed team of Humanities Teachers and will play a key part in not only gaining excellent results for our students, but also in enthusing them about History. The successful applicant will be required to teach all abilities from Year 7 to GCSE.

You will have excellent communication skills and be approachable whether dealing with learners, parents or colleagues. Just as importantly, you will need to share our passion and vision of helping every learner achieve their full potential.

In 2017 62% of our students gained 4+ in both English & Maths. In History 50% gained A*-C and 20% achieved A*-A. This is an exciting time to join us at Walkden and to become part of a team of staff who are dedicated to improving these results further.

Opportunities for career progression are excellent.

This school is committed to safe-guarding and promoting the well-being of children.
