Job overview
An opportunity has arisen for an outstanding Design Technology teacher to join Old Buckenham Hall as Head of Department. This is a part-time role with the possibility of full-time employment if the candidate can also offer sports coaching.
It is a very exciting time to be joining our outstanding school. With an established senior management team, there have been significant investments in recent years and the school is near capacity with numbers up year on year for the past three years. The school sits in 75 acres of historic parkland and buildings which create an educational idyl.

The department currently benefits from a large workshop and a design suite.
The new post-holder will assume their role in September 2021.
