Required: from September 2025
Uppingham School, one of the UK's leading independent schools, is seeking to appoint a first-rate graduate to train as a teacher of Textiles, Art and Design Technology from September 2025.
About the Role
This position would suit a recent graduate with a specialism in Textiles, eager to gain teaching experience while working towards Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). You will gain experience in a superbly resourced Art and Design faculty, building on the strong interest in Textiles in all year groups. Some teaching across the Design Technology department is also envisaged, with opportunity to also develop in Art, depending on your expertise.
During your first year, you will complete a PGCE while teaching a reduced timetable and it is anticipated that you will have the opportunity to complete your Early Career Teacher (ECT) induction years at Uppingham, where you will receive continuous support from a dedicated team.
The person appointed will be a strong, dynamic character with excellent subject knowledge, a good degree and appropriate rapport with pupils. They will have high personal and professional standards, with pastoral instincts and must be willing to play a full part in the life of this seven-day week boarding school, by taking on responsibilities in addition to teaching.
