About us: Ringwood School is a large thriving oversubscribed 11-18 Comprehensive School situated in beautiful surroundings close to the New Forest and the Hampshire/Dorset coastline. We recognise the importance of creating a dynamic, innovative learning environment to support young people with their learning. The History department is a vibrant and lively place to work! There are currently 4 specialist historians. The departmental culture is student centred with very low behavioural incidents and high levels of rewards and achievement. Lessons are engaging and a variety of different learning activities are incorporated into our schemes of work. When you walk into a History lesson you will observe members of the department who are passionate about their subject and the progress of their students and in turn, students who are engaged, hardworking and enjoying the subject. The quality of learning is judged through a rigorous quality assurance programme including book looks and learning walks. We work as a collegial department, there is a constant buzz of professional conversation in the office and exceptionally strong collaboration on the planning of lessons and marking of students' work. This is an exciting time to join the department as we have recently rewritten our Key Stage Three curriculum with a focus on enquiry led units. We launched the new curriculum with year 7 and 8 over the past two years and have launched the curriculum to year 9. Within the planning of these schemes of work we have carefully considered the incorporation of disciplinary knowledge and substantive concepts and whilst addressing enquiry questions, our schemes of work still take a chronological approach to help ensure that students are secure in understanding time and period. A core principle of our curriculum intent is to ensure that students understand where they come from and how their experience may be different to that of others. We aim to encourage students to question and help them understand complexity of lives, diversity of societies and groups. The selection of content for our units and the focus of our enquiry questions is based around this intent. The team are friendly, mutually supportive, work together and with other teams across the school to produce an ethos and atmosphere which is conducive to learning. We recognise the importance of learning from each other to include sharing best practice both within and between schools. We are dedicated to continually pushing ourselves with new topics and resources, so we benefit from continuous learning. Our results at A-Level over time are good and our GCSE results are often excellent. We aspire to continue with these excellent results as a department and work closely with the team to ensure that students are always making good progress. If you're ready to bring history to life in a school that values passionate teaching, we'd love to hear from you! Closing date: 9am, 24 March 2025.
