We're Looking For Someone Who:
Has a passion for Humanities and enjoys bringing the subject to life.
Builds positive relationships with young people and has high expectations for every learner.
Is creative, enthusiastic and willing to try new ideas in the classroom.
Enjoys working as part of a close-knit team.
