Here is a "quick-and-dirty" way to get this going. It will make a small blue label in the header. I've confirmed that this renders OK in iOS 6 and iOS 7.

in your UITableViewDelegate:

 -(void)viewDidLoad
{
...
    [self.table registerClass:[UITableViewHeaderFooterView class] forHeaderFooterViewReuseIdentifier:@"Header"];
...
}

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return 34.;
}

- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    UITableViewHeaderFooterView *header = [tableView dequeueReusableHeaderFooterViewWithIdentifier:@"Header"];

    UILabel *leftlabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0., 0., 400., 34.)];
    [leftlabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blueColor]];

    [header.contentView addSubview:leftlabel];
    return header;
}
