Job overview
Key Stage 2 & 3 Teachers of Yr7 Expeditionary Learning (Sept 2021)
The Greater Peterborough UTC (GPUTC) is looking to build a team of staff who will deliver Expeditionary Learning to our brand-new Year 7 cohort who start with us in September 2021.
This means a unique opportunity awaits either a Teacher of KS2 or a Secondary Teacher who has an interest in delivering Expeditionary Learning.
This is an amazing opportunity to be part of a team of staff who will be helping create, design and deliver the only Expeditionary Learning experience in our area.
Expeditionary Learning is an innovative and exciting programme of studies, where students engage in a learning journey across all subjects completing in-depth research of compelling authentic topics.
With this in mind, we are not looking for a particular subject specialism as the team will teach across all subjects.
Expeditionary Learning develops students' knowledge and skills, using the National Curriculum at Key Stage 3 to guide the standards which must be covered, as well as focusing on the development of vital character skills that are so important in today's modern working world.
These roles will include 20 hrs of Yr7 teaching a week and 5 hrs of protected PPA time.
The GPUTC is Peterborough’s only STEM focused specialist school catering for learners aged 11-19. We are the school of choice for the engineers, architects, scientists and designers of the future in the Peterborough and the surrounding area.

About Greater Peterborough UTC
‘Creating the Workforce of Tomorrow’
’Greater Peterborough University Technical College (GPUTC) is a STEM specialist school currently for students aged 11 to 19. Located in Peterborough city centre, the £12 million school opened in September 2016 to help create the city’s future scientists, engineers, designers, architects and construction specialists of the future. UTC’s are secondary schools for young people that are sponsored by a university and local employers. They were set up by the government to encourage young people to study technical subjects and to give them the opportunity to learn the skills that employers are looking for.
GPUTC is a valued member of the Meridian Trust and as such benefits from a supportive network of leadership at senior and subject level and is fully integrated and accessing all support services such as HR and financial support. In 2022, the first year of year 7 students, GPUTC was oversubscribed with many parents wanting not only a smaller school for their child but also one which specialises in a STEM curriculum. In Key Stage 4, which from 2023 will start in year 9, students can study separate sciences, engineering and the built environment (made up of architecture, design, surveying and construction) along with their core GCSE subjects. Students are also given the opportunity to pick from computer science, art and design and some humanities subjects all of which augment a STEM rich curriculum. In year 12 students may commit themselves to, from 2023, T ’Levels in ‘Engineering and Manufacturing’ and ‘Health Care Science’ there will also be a traditional route of A Levels in such subjects as Maths, Science and Product Design.
