Information

We are looking to appoint a Teacher of History to join our experienced and supportive team at Broughton, who will be required to teach History at KS3/KS4. Staff in the History department here at Broughton have a wealth of experience and have repeatedly produced excellent outcomes for our pupils.

Broughton High School is a wonderful place to come to work. Our motto ‘Achieving Together’ is really important to us and encompasses every member of our school community. We all work hard every day to provide the best learning and teaching environment for our pupils and each other. We have a highly experienced staff, supportive parents and marvellous, well-behaved children who are a delight to teach. Many staff come to Broughton and stay for many, many years because of the ‘family atmosphere’ and because they genuinely like working here.

High standards in History have been achieved through consistent approaches to teaching and learning, effective monitoring and tracking of pupils and lots of hard work as well as very high standards of discipline. Collaborations within and beyond the department are a feature of life at Broughton. Sharing good practice is a key strength of the department. Details regarding results can be found on our school website, along with a significant amount of information about the History curriculum.
