Job overview
Teacher of Food Technology
We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and innovative Teacher of Food Technology to work within our expanding Art and Technology department, for the delivery of Food Technology at KS3 and GCSE. The post would suit an NQT or more experienced teacher. NQT statutory induction is provided and the successful candidate will be working within a supportive and experienced department, who continually improve and develop their practice in order to achieve the best for the young people at our school.
Food and Nutrition is a very popular Subject at The Stonehenge School. It is our belief that all children should be equipped with the basic skills in order to be independent once they leave for further education. To that end we hope to be able to provide all KS3 students at least one hour of food per week with an option to select GCSE Food and Nutrition from year 9 onwards.
We are looking for colleagues with:
- a commitment to raising achievement
- the ability to engage and support students
- an enthusiasm and deep knowledge of the subject
A commitment to help all young people and staff to achieve their best is expected of all staff.

About The Stonehenge School
The Stonehenge School is a mixed, comprehensive, non-denominational secondary school situated in Amesbury, Wiltshire. It is an above average-sized state school, having almost reached its full capacity of 1,120 places for pupils aged 11–16. In 2019, our new £6.5 million extension was opened providing 24 additional state-of-the -art classrooms, and in 2023 further improvements have been made through the £6 million block that was opened to replace existing accommodation.
The school serves the expanding town of Amesbury, the location of the Boscombe Down airbase and the Solstice Park Enterprise Zone, the two largest employers in the area. The catchment area also includes several of the surrounding villages and around a quarter of the intake lives outside of our catchment. Many of these are children from services families located on Salisbury Plain.
