We have a fantastic opportunity for an aspiring, imaginative and inspirational teacher of History and Classics to join Hartlepool Sixth Form College. The successful candidate will work in a caring and energetic College where students achieve and make good progress. History is a popular and well-resourced subject within the sixth form and Classics is an area which has been growing year on year. Students currently have a choice between early modern or modern options within the History course, following the Edexcel specification. Within Classics students follow the OCR specification and currently study the ‘Invention of the Barbarian’ and ‘Democracy and the Athenians’.

Hartlepool Sixth Form College is a mixed, non-selective, specialist sixth-form college catering for 16-18 students.

Our aim is to give students an excellent educational experience that enables them to achieve their full potential, providing them with a strong foundation from which they can progress to higher education or into the increasingly competitive world of work.

In August 2017 we merged with Sunderland College and now have campuses based across Sunderland and Hartlepool and we are the largest multi campus College in the North East. Annually the College delivers education and training to 13,500 students ranging in age from 14-16, 16-18, 19 years and above. Delivery spans all education routes including GCSEs and A Levels, professional and technical education, apprenticeships, higher education and commercial activity.

In the last few years the College has been inspected and achieved ‘good’ with strong features, we recently won a national Beacon Award for our approaches to Employer Engagement, a reflection of the value we place on collaboration and partnerships. We have also achieved TEF Silver for our Higher education teaching and learning. We are Matrix Accredited for our IAG Services and work closely with the NE LEP to embed the Gatsby Good Career Benchmarks across the region. The College has also recently achieved Continuing Excellence for the Better Health at Work Award.
