Teacher of History (maternity cover) from 2 November 2026

Aylsham High School · Norwich · Norfolk

Job description

We are looking for a committed, proactive and hardworking teacher of history to join our humanities team to cover a period of maternity leave. We will consider applications for either part time (3 days per week/0.6FTE) or full time (1FTE).

This contract is due to start on Monday 2 November 2026, however due to the nature of maternity cover posts this date may change nearer the time.

Students enjoy history and achieve consistently very good outcomes in their GCSE examinations. This post represents an excellent professional development opportunity for an enthusiastic and committed teacher of history to develop their classroom practice by working as part of a strong and dedicated team of history teachers, as well as to develop their subject skills and knowledge. We are looking for someone who loves their subject and can communicate and share that passion with their students, colleagues, and the wider community.
