Head of Computer Science

Croydon High is seeking an inspirational and innovative Head of Computer Science to lead this exciting department. 

Our Computer Science Department also houses our Enterprise Technology programme—bespoke to Croydon High School —which seeks to ensure that our pupils can harness the many possibilities of emerging and disruptive technologies through project-based learning. 

The Head of Computer Science will build upon the work already done to place technology at the heart of our curriculum: a commitment which saw the school recently described as ‘One to Watch’ in the 2019 Education Foundation EdTech 50 Schools’ Report.
