We are looking to appoint a Head of History at the Under School. The successful candidate will bring their broad general knowledge of History into the classroom, excelling in both taught History lessons and the wider extra-curricular nature of the subject at the School. The role presents a rare opportunity for an individual to run the History Department in a school that is itself steeped in history, and where the pupils brim with enthusiasm for the subject and there is an overall love of academic endeavour and critical thinking.
This is an exciting time to join the Under School, as we look forward to expansion to become a co-educational school for children aged four to 13 from September 2026. A key part of this role over the next year will, therefore, be to support with the development of our new curriculum for Reception to Year 2, and adapt the current schemes of work for a co-educational environment.
