To inspire each of our young people to flourish as an individual, to be curious, to be resilient and to love learning. We aspire for them to grow into articulate, independent future citizens and to become the leaders of tomorrow.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our outstanding school and further develop and build on the success of our DT department. Our current provision comprises GCSE DT, Engineering and Food and Nutrition courses.

We would like to appoint an enthusiastic, highly motivated leader with a commitment to delivering DT and Engineering and who can teach GCSE Engineering.

The successful candidate should have excellent subject knowledge to promote further innovation within the team and be willing to encourage STEM links across school and in the community. If you are a creative person who embraces change to secure improvement, we would love to hear from you. Information about the school is available on our website together with further details about the post and an application pack.

All completed applications should be returned to Mrs Debbie Gallimore, Executive Leader by 12 noon on Monday 11 March 2019. Interviews will be held on Monday 18 March 2019.

We are committed to safeguarding children in all aspects of recruitment and selection.
