Job overview
National changes to the curriculum and assessment of Design and Technology have had a major impact on schools, including Langdon Academy, resulting in changes to organisational structures and curriculum content. As part of the transition to our new vision for Art, Design and Technology (ADT), an exciting opportunity has arisen to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced member of staff to join the department.
Because of the merging of our Art and Technology departments and because our GCSE examinations are now within Art and Design, the person we wish appoint will have made a significant impact and provided successful outcomes for students in existing D&T specifications, as well as having evidence of significant experience and/or training within the field of Art and Design.
This is an exciting time for the department with the opportunity to develop new, stimulating courses for our students and to utilise the skillsets of the staff within the team. The successful candidate will be an excellent teacher whose performance is supported by impressive outcomes for students, and who can demonstrate effective subject delivery over time in their present role.
Please visit our websites at www.langdonacademy.org or www.bramptonmanor.org to apply and obtain further details about this role. All completed application forms must be sent by email to the Principal’s PA Kamar Fadiga at Kamar.Fadiga@langdonacademy.org. Interviews will be held later in that week.
Brampton Manor Trust is committed to the safeguarding of children. Enhanced DBS checks will always be carried out on new employees.

About Langdon Academy
Langdon Academy is a mixed, non-denominational all-through academy school for three to 16-year-olds located in East Ham in the east London borough of Newham. It has capacity for just over 2,400 pupils.
The school is part of the Brampton Manor Trust, a multi-academy trust which also runs Brampton Manor Academy. Langdon Academy (previously Langdon School) joined the trust in 2014.
The school was originally three separate institutions, built in 1953. In 1972, these schools - Burges Manor, Thomas Lethaby and East Ham Grammar School - were combined to form Langdon School, a mixed comprehensive that would later become Langdon Academy.
