WHSB seeks a dynamic and enthusiastic Teacher of Economics. The School welcomes applications from both experienced teachers and graduates looking to train as a teacher.
The Economics Department at Westcliff High School for Boys (WHSB) has been a high performing Department for many years. We have consistently achieved outstanding results in Public Examinations. The Department has grown considerably over recent years. There are presently 170 students studying Economics in Years 12 and 13, with a further ten groups (250 pupils) studying the subject in Years 10 and 11.
The Economics Department also plays an important role in the extra-curricular life of the School. The Department offers a variety of additional clubs and competitions which pupils can participate in across Key Stages 4 and 5, aimed at assisting those in need of support or extending the more able. These include The Westcliff Economics Society, The Westcliff Economist, Young Enterprise, Extended Project Qualification and Sixth Form Mentoring.
