Job description
Location: Walthamstow, London Contract: Full-Time, Permanent/Long-term Start Date: ASAP Are you a storyteller, an analyst, and an educator with the power to make the past a vibrant roadmap for the future? We are seeking an intellectually curious and engaging History Teacher to join a thriving Humanities department within a diverse and energetic secondary school in Walthamstow . In a corner of London known for its rich social history and grassroots activism, this school provides a unique environment to teach History as a tool for understanding identity, power, and change. The Role As a History Teacher, you will deliver a broad and balanced curriculum across KS3 and KS4 . You will join a faculty that moves beyond rote dates and names, focusing on historical inquiry, source analysis, and the development of powerful student voices. Key Responsibilities: Inquiry-Based Learning: Guiding students through the complexities of British, European, and Global history—from the Silk Roads and the Tudors to the Civil Rights Movement and the Cold War. Source Analysis: Developing students' ability to evaluate primary and secondary evidence, identifying bias, utility, and historical perspective. Discursive Writing: Helping students construct sophisticated, well-evidenced arguments in preparation for GCSE (AQA/Edexcel) and A-Level assessments. Inclusive History: Ensuring the curriculum reflects the diverse backgrounds of the Walthamstow community, integrating local history and global narratives. Why Join This School? Waltham Forest’s Cultural Hub: Work in a borough with a proud heritage of William Morris and radical politics, offering incredible local context for your lessons. Collaborative Humanities Team: Join a department that values shared planning, collaborative marking, and a "work-smart" approach to protect your wellbeing. Modern Learning Resources: Benefit from digital archives, interactive classroom technology, and a school library that is a genuine hub for research. Professional Trajectory: Access to bespoke CPD, including links with the Historical Association and pathways to Middle Leadership or Lead Practitioner roles. About You We are looking for a specialist who can bridge the gap between ancient archives and modern headlines with clarity and passion. The Ideal Candidate: Holds QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) and a relevant degree in History or a related field. Has a proven track record of securing strong outcomes at GCSE and/or A-Level. Possesses excellent classroom management skills and a talent for facilitating high-level debates. Is an effective communicator who can inspire students of all prior attainment levels.
