Teacher of Design & Technology

What skills and experience we're looking for

We currently have a vacancy for a full-time Design & Technology Teacher. This vacancy has arisen due to SLT approving a reduction in class sizes to 20 in Design & Technology and Hospitality & Catering lessons. This is a huge investment in the department and highlights how well we are valued and supported within the school.

Experience in, or an enthusiasm for Product Design and Architecture is preferable.

What the school offers its staff

A great opportunity to teach Design & Technology in Shakespeare’s town. We:

• have had a very positive inspection by Ofsted under the new framework
• are in the process of developing/expanding our site due to our increasing popularity and increased admissions applications. This will further enhance our already excellent working environment/facilities and provide additional opportunities for your future development
• are a genuinely inclusive school. People matter; everybody matters. We live and breathe by our values
• have strong leadership at all levels. This is a deliberate way of working and the school ‘is well led by many’
• have a really strong pastoral system and structures, resulting in high levels of behaviour and buy-in from our students and parents
• have a talented, supportive staff who share and uphold the school’s values. They are committed to improving the school further and creating the best possible experiences for our students
• are part of a very special local community. Stratford upon Avon is a wonderful place to work.

Our mission is summed up by 3 words, Engage, Enthuse & Inspire, which underpin what we’re all about.
