Design & Technology Teacher

An ambitious and inclusive secondary school in Newcastle is looking for a passionate and dedicated Design & Technology Teacher to join the team this September.

This is a school where Kindness, Integrity, Determination, Manners, Ambition and Positivity underpin everything they do. Staff work collaboratively to create a culture of high expectations, creativity and innovation, where students are encouraged to develop practical skills, solve real-world problems and take pride in their achievements.

Whether you're an experienced Design & Technology Teacher or an ECT looking for the right school to begin your career, this could be an excellent opportunity.

The Role

As a Design & Technology Teacher, you will:

• Develop students' design, manufacturing and problem-solving skills
• Create a safe and inclusive workshop environment
• Support students of all abilities to achieve their full potential
• Work collaboratively within a successful DT department
• Contribute to extracurricular projects, STEM initiatives and enrichment opportunities where appropriate

• High expectations alongside excellent pastoral support
• Well-equipped workshops and specialist teaching facilities
