GSL are working with a large secondary school in Southampton who are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspiring Teacher of Humanities, starting immediately.
The ideal candidate will have both the commitment and ability to enthuse and motivate students to ensure excellent progress is made by all. They will be a dynamic teacher who encourages a love for the subject through both their teaching and their involvement in co-curricular offers. The successful candidate should have a genuine passion for the subject, the ability to be an outstanding teacher of their subject and be committed to raising achievement, raising aspirations and going the extra mile.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a department and academy on a journey of exploration, where teachers are supported and encouraged to develop their classroom practice through a wide range of development opportunities. The schools pedagogical approach is based on the latest evidence and research and ensures that teaching is efficient and effective whilst prioritising staff wellbeing. Teachers are asked to plan for a rigorous learning experience in which knowledge is broken down into manageable chunks to prevent cognitive load and allow students to remain focused on what is important. The school believe that knowledge should and needs to be taught explicitly from the front by the subject expert in the room. Working in this way allows students to focus on the recall and activation of that knowledge and bring it to bear on conceptually focused questions.
This is an exciting opportunity with a salary of MPS/UPS.
