About this Role

Belper School and Sixth Form Centre are seeking to appoint A Teacher of History. The successful candidate will be an excellent classroom practitioner with a genuine love for their subject, strong subject knowledge, a calm and kind manner and consistently high expectations for both academic achievement and student behaviour.  

The ability to teach a second subject at A level such as Economics, Sociology, Politics or Psychology would be an advantage although it is not essential.

 The role also includes responsibilities as a form tutor, delivering a centrally planned and fully resourced PSHE curriculum. We place great value on the tutor role as a cornerstone of students’ school experience and are therefore looking for someone who is committed to pastoral care and positive relationships with their students.

 This full-time, permanent post would suit either an experienced teacher or an Early Career Teacher. For ECTs, we offer a highly supportive induction, high-quality mentoring and a strong programme of professional development through our Early Career Framework and wider CPD provision.

 Belper School and Sixth Form Centre is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to relevant safeguarding checks, including enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service checks, in line with the most recent guidance in Keeping Children Safe in Education. We are also committed to equality of opportunity in employment and service provision.

 If teaching in this kind of environment appeals to you, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please read the instructions within the attached recruitment pack for full details of the role and  how to apply.

  1. Why do you want to work at Belper School and Sixth Form Centre? How do our school aims and ethos resonate with your own views on education and leadership?
