    Default job background
    Description
    Head of Business and Economics


    Contract:
    Full Time. Permanent.

    About Our School
    We are a happy and successful High School with a Sixth Form.

    We serve the whole community of Droitwich and its surrounding villages, making our intake socio-economically diverse; our sense of belonging to our community is a major driver in the work we do in ensuring that every child can experience life changing learning.

    We take just as much pride in our Oxbridge and Russell Group acceptances as we do in enabling students who find the social side of school difficult and/or find academic work challenging to secure meaningful, high quality destinations post 16.

    There is far more to a school than an OFSTED report but we are really pleased that they have acknowledged all of our strengths in their February 2024 visit, where we were graded 'Good' in all categories.

    They also acknowledged our excellent support of SEND students and acknowledged our efforts outside of academic attainment.

    We expect that it will give you an even deeper feel for the community we serve, our ethos, our culture and what our school is like day to day.

    It is available as a download on TES alongside this document and also on our website here:

    Due to the current postholder seeking a new challenge and experience in their career, we are looking to recruit a Head of Business and Economics to start in September.

    The successful applicant could be somebody who is relatively early in their career but has a passion for teaching and learning and driving improvements and would rise to the challenge of leading a small department team successfully.

    Alternatively, the candidate could be more experienced (perhaps an existing Head of Business or Economics or a department TLR holder in a larger department) who can put their skills and talents to use in leading the department.

    There is, of course, a full job description and person specification available but it is important to stress the selected candidate will need to be a role model in their own classroom, have the credibility to inspire and lead a team and have unwavering commitment to sustaining a culture of ambition, optimism, and high performance.

    About our Business and Economics Department

    The Business and Economics Department has a strong tradition of supportiveness; The team is a mix of experience with colleagues who have been teaching at DSHS for a while and one in the early part of their career who joined us in the last 2-3 years.

    At GCSE the students follow the Edexcel specification for Business Studies.
    We are currently exploring our curriculum offer to include GCSE Economics in September.

    Progress at GCSE has been in recovery for the last few years with definite room for improvement, particularly with disadvantaged pupils.

    We always have one A level Business Studies and one A level Economics class in each Sixth Form year group.

    WE also have a good track record of success in our Sixth Form enrichment offer, where our Young Enterprise groups have recently won several awards and we have had a team get through to the final of the Economics World Cup.

    Droitwich Spa High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
