Job description
We are seeking a dedicated, innovative and effective Subject Leader to lead our successful Design Technology department in our outstanding selective school. This role would suit an experienced teacher able to lead our team of subject specialists, and be responsible for teaching and learning in Design Technology across all Key Stages and technology specialisms.

Applications from current subject leaders looking for a career move, or from strong candidates seeking to progress to middle leadership are welcome. We can offer an exceptional working environment where staff, as well as students, thrive.

Our students are capable, hardworking and a delight to teach. We are a National Teaching School with a record of nationally recognised innovative practice, and an Apple Distinguished School in recognition of our leading-edge use of technology for learning. In recent years major building programmes have included the construction of excellent sports facilities, a distinctive Sixth Form Centre and new classrooms, workshops, laboratories, ICT suites and communal areas. The school was last inspected in 2021 by Ofsted, and was graded outstanding in all categories.
