Job overview
TEACHER OF DESIGN TECHNOLOGY
Permanent
TMPS/UPS
Required for September 2017, we require an outstanding Design Technology teacher. This is an exciting opportunity to join a very successful and thriving Design department in this Outstanding school with Teaching School status.
Our school has a really positive ethos, with very strong pastoral and academic guidance and a real emphasis on learning in everything we do. We were inspected by Ofsted in May 2012 and were graded as Outstanding in every category and overall. We were the only secondary school to achieve an Outstanding judgement in the whole of the North East in 2012. Such significant progress has only been possible because we have a committed, enthusiastic and highly skilled staff team, a supportive governing body and superb students. We genuinely believe the support, care and welfare of our students is second to none and we are a school which puts the students at the very centre of all that it does.
Ofsted said that our students receive “a first-class education” but we are not a complacent school. There are many aspects that we can improve further and our challenge is to do this without compromising our existing strengths.
If you are an enthusiastic, innovative and creative teacher with a high level of professional and interpersonal skills, we would like to hear from you. Applications from NQTs are welcomed and an excellent programme of support is in place to ensure a successful induction.
Please find an application form and job details on our website:-
Closing date for applications: Noon, Thursday 15 June 2017.
