About the Department The Ormesby Humanities Department is a welcoming and sociable department of staff, including both Geographers and Historians, who are all extremely passionate about their subject specialisms. Our department is well respected within the Academy and is located centrally, with all classrooms close together. All classrooms are resourced with interactive whiteboards, visualisers and ample storage, which will enable you to teach in a variety of ways. In addition to this, we share a small workroom with several computers, fridge, kettle and nearly always a selection of snacks!
