Head of Nutrition and Health Science

The appointment is for a full-time, permanent, Head of Department position, which arises following the retirement of the Current Head of Department. The Department is currently staffed by two full time and one part time member of staff and a full-time technician.

At Key Stage 3 level, there are 6 classes which are subdivided into 9 smaller groups for Home Economics. Each group has 2 periods per fortnight (each period is 55 minutes) and approximately 16 boys in a class. Currently at Key Stage 4, GCSE Hospitality is offered with 2 classes in each year group. BTEC Hospitality is offered at Key Stage 5 with there being 2 classes in each year group. This has been a popular subject, but since the removal of BTEC Hospitality from the UK curriculum offer, the College has decided to phase out Hospitality entirely, and replace it with GCSE & A Level Health and Social Care.

Across the academic year 2025/2026, there will be two Year 12 classes finishing GCSE Hospitality and two Year 14 classes finishing BTEC Hospitality. Therefore, the successful candidate will be required to oversee the end of Hospitality for Years 12 and 14, and the introduction of Health and Social Care in Years 11 and 13. The curriculum offering is reviewed regularly and the College is also open to offering GCSE Food and Nutrition (and potentially A Level Nutrition and Food Science or an equivalent qualification) if there is sufficient interest, in the near future.
