TEACHER OF HISTORY

We are seeking to appoint an inspirational, highly motivated and innovative committed teacher of History.

History is offered at all 3 Key Stages with over half the cohort at KS4 being entered for History GCSE. At KS5, History has always been a popular choice and is one of the most studied post-16 subjects.  Most of our students go on to study related degrees at top universities.

This successful department is committed to stimulating students’ interest and enjoyment in their studies in addition to producing good examination results. Students’ progress in History is very good.

Kingsthorpe College is an oversubscribed 11-18 Academy with approximately 1400 students on roll (200 students Post 16).  We were graded by Ofsted as Good in all areas in December 2019, and we are now looking forward to the next stage of our journey from good to great.  In September 2021, we joined Orbis Education Trust, and this has unlocked further possibilities for colleagues to develop, progress, and make a significant contribution to inspiring the students within our schools.  We therefore believe it is an exciting time to join #TeamKC and be part of a community, which is resolute in its drive to help our students leave with the confidence and skills to be able to take part in the great conversations of our times. Kingsthorpe is on a journey to world-class status. Please look at our website https://www.kingsthorpecollege.org.uk for a comprehensive view of our school.

You would be joining a friendly, hard-working team, with an ethos of collaborative planning and shared resources. 

We place significant emphasis on working collegiately as a faculty to share our expertise and subsequently enhance the learning experience with our students. Every member of the staff is involved in a variety of professional learning programmes that take place across the academic year.

With our trust growing, we are likely to have many more career development opportunities coming up in future.

The position will start in Easter 2025.

Closing date for applications is Friday, 10^th January 2025 at 9.00 am. 

We may interview suitable candidates prior to the closing date.
