Job overview
Abbeyfield School is looking for an ambitious, experienced, committed and energetic Design Technology Technician who shares our vision and values and can support the aims and ethos of the school and Creative Education Trust. This is an exciting opportunity to work closely with us to make a significant contribution to the next stage of our journey. In July 2019 we were delighted to be awarded ‘Secondary School of the Year’ in the Northamptonshire Education Awards.
We, like all schools in the Trust pursue a rigorous and continuous programme of educational improvement, alongside an aim to provide pupils with a rich programme of co-curricular activities. Abbeyfield offers a varied diet of curriculum and enrichment opportunities and students benefit from Trust organised events such as the key concept launch days, debate and essay writing competitions and our annual days of Shakespeare performance and the Day of Sport. We are often the host school for these events to allow students to work in a professional theatre space. We are keen to expand further on the opportunities we provide for students to develop their creativity, resilience and independence.
We believe Abbeyfield is a very special place to work and we are excited about the future. As a popular and oversubscribed school we are expecting to be full in September 2019 despite an additional form of entry in Year 7. If you are passionate about what we are trying to achieve and would like to support our Design Technology Faculty then I look forward to receiving your application.
