Teacher of Humanities

We are looking for a highly motivated and innovative teacher to join our dedicated Humanities department from April/September 2025.

The successful candidate will be able to deliver high-quality lessons in Geography across all Key Stages. The ability to teach History to GCSE and/or Religious Studies to KS3 would be desirable.

The Humanities department is well established at Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys and continues to be popular across each year group. Enabling students into Higher Education with confidence is a strength. We have enjoyed excellent results at both GCSE and A Level as well as Key Stage 3. A healthy approach to broader, innovative ways to enhance learning is encouraged, and trips and out-of-class enrichment activities add to this. Staff have a wealth of experiences and interests, which bring many dimensions to the provision of excellent lessons, as well as skills and support for a new colleague!

You will be able to demonstrate experience of achieving positive outcomes for students, as well as being passionate about making a difference to the lives of young people. As a committed team player, you will have excellent organisational skills and the natural ability to motivate both students and peers. We welcome applications from creative and dynamic teachers who can contribute to this vision. Although the ideal candidate will have a proven track record of excellent teaching and learning, we also welcome applications from ECTs.

Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys is an expanding and rapidly improving selective grammar school. It is undergoing a period of transformational change benefiting from a multi-million pound investment in Tunbridge Wells and a brand new building at our Sevenoaks campus, which opened in September 2021.

Staff benefit from a positive working environment, with strong support for professional development and specialist teaching rooms. We aim for high standards and the pursuit of academic excellence, helping every student to reach their full potential through the development of skills, concepts and knowledge, within the framework of a caring community. Relationships between staff and students are based on trust, mutual respect and a determination to succeed.

Please note that we will only accept CVs that are accompanied by an application form (see below). We shall review applications as we receive them so apply early to avoid delay! We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role.
