The governors of this highly successful and oversubscribed school seek to appoint an enthusiastic and innovative technology technician. This is an opportunity to join a dynamic and successful team working in a school with excellent technology facilities and very high academic standards. The main aim of this role is to support the design and technology curriculum team in the preparation of resources required for lessons. The successful candidate will ideally have the experience and skills required to maintain equipment, have the knowledge of workshop safety standards, and be willing to gain the necessary qualifications for the role. Candidates should also enjoy interacting and supporting young people to achieve their potential. The school has a very positive learning culture, with excellent examination outcomes, being consistently amongst the highest performing in the country in terms of progress and currently has the top Progress 8 of all schools in North Yorkshire. The last Ofsted Inspection highlighted the following: ‘The school has extremely high expectations for pupils’ behaviour. Pupils’ conduct is consistently excellent. Pupils are considerate of others. In lessons, they listen attentively and value the contributions of peers. Pupils recognise the importance of working hard. Their attitudes towards learning are consistently positive. This contributes to the studious atmosphere in lessons.’ ‘Pupils achieve exceptionally well across the curriculum. This is reflected in published outcomes from national examinations. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) benefit from the same rich curriculum as their peers. They achieve equally impressive academic outcomes.’ This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
