Teacher of Design & Technology

Full or Part-time Teacher of Design & Technology

Salary – Main or Upper Scale

Required 1^st September 2025

A fantastic opportunity to work with class sizes of sixteen engaged, intelligent and truly delightful students, who adore the subject.  The department is well equipped, in its own block with all members of staff having been here for years, a retirement has created this chance to join us, a team that is flexible in its approach and welcomes new ideas.

The Governors are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and well-qualified graduate Teacher of Design & Technology to this selective school which has been FIVE times judged OUTSTANDING by OFSTED, the most recent Inspection being November 2022.

The successful candidate will join an experienced Design & Technology Department  which achieves outstanding results at GCSE, with a well established course. The school is currently considering re-introducing A Level Product Design from September 2025.

This opportunity will ideally suit someone who enjoys teaching well-motivated and intelligent pupils in an academic school which is committed to the ideals of Catholic education – the school was judged Outstanding in a Catholic Schools Inspection in November 2024.  Applications from experienced teachers are welcome but the existing expertise within the department means that this position is equally suited to an Early Career Teacher.  For full-time applicants, offering a second subject would be an advantage.

The Technology Rooms are in a modern block equipped with all the latest implements to aid teaching, from a laser cutter to two 3D printers.  There are also two computer suites of 16 PCs. The department has a dedicated Design and Technology Technician.

The school provides a very rewarding working environment where employees are valued and there is a focus on staff welfare.

An application form and job description are available on the school website.
