This post is suitable for both ECTs and experienced teachers looking for a new challenge or you may be someone with experience in this field who can learn the required curriculum and become an Instructor of Food and Nutrition. For the right candidate we may be able to train and support you to develop a second subject.

The technology curriculum is broad and rich, allowing students to explore and enhance both their academic and practical skills. Students typically do very well and consistently achieve positive value added scores at GCSE. Timber is a very popular choice and has three classes at KS4, Textiles has one class this year, as does Food & Nutrition but we are keen to grow this and students are enthusiastic. We have a number of well-equipped food rooms and are excited to bring Food and Nutrition back onto the curriculum.
The department consistently performs very well academically at GCSE and are expanding their provision to KS5 as of 2025. We have two dedicated technicians who are invaluable in supporting our provision to our students. This is an exciting time to join both the department and the school and you will benefit from supportive and passionate colleagues as we continue to innovate to ensure we are providing our students with a forward-thinking curriculum for their future careers.
