They are looking for an outstanding Design and Technology teacher who can demonstrate exceptional classroom practice. You will be required to teach up to GCSE and ideally A level. The willingness to teach Food or Textiles would also be advantageous.

The department offers the new GCSEs in Design and Technology with three classes specialising in Resistant Materials, Electronics and Textiles, as well as, Food Preparation and Nutrition. Their current Year 11 will be the last groups to study the old specifications. Product Design A Level is offered to our Sixth Form students.

In Year 7 and 8 students are taught in a carousel with Art. In Year 9, students choose three Design subjects to study GCSE taster courses to help them make appropriate choses for KS4.

At GCSE and A Level students' attainment in Design and Technology subjects is comparable or higher than the national average and students generally make good progress.
