Job overview
The History department
There are three other full-time teachers in the History department. The History and Geography departments combine as the Humanities faculty.
We currently have three History classrooms equipped with whiteboards and projectors. The successful candidate is likely to have his or her own classroom for all lessons.
All pupils across the Academy have iPads which are regularly used to support their work. Google Classroom is increasingly used as a platform for the setting and marking of work, though we still expect much work to be hand-written.
Key Stage 3 currently runs throughout Years 7 to 9. It covers British history from the Anglo-Saxons to the present day, as well as units of local, European and world history.
At GCSE most pupils studying history take an AQA course comprising America, 1920-1973; Conflict and Tension, 1894-1918; Britain, Power and the People, c.1170-present day and Medieval England, the Reign of Edward I, 1272-1307. There is also a smaller, supported class in Year 11 taking an OCR course covering Crime and Punishment, the Norman Conquest, Vikings, Nazi Germany and York Minster.
Please note: The post is likely to entail some teaching of Key Stage 3 Geography for at least the first term.

The main focus of the Subject Teacher's role is fostering the learning and progress of the pupils in their care. This involves being an effective teacher of pupils as well as of the subject. Quality of preparation, resourcing, planning, subject expertise, teaching skill, pace, challenge, proactive classroom management, effective marking and assessment, high expectations, and positive personal relationships are all central to providing the conditions within which pupils' personal skills, abilities, understanding, learning and progress can be developed.
