Job description
We are recruiting for two fantastic part time roles in our design technology department, one vacancy is for a DT technician and the other is for a teacher of design technology. These can be two separate roles or combined into a full-time role. Please note that we are also recruiting separately for a part-time teacher of food preparation and nutrition, this could be combined with the part time teacher of design technology.
Design and Technology (D&T) is a popular subject at Claremont Fan Court both at GSCE and A level. In September 2019 we opened a brand-new Design & Technology studio, with a range of machines including 3D printers and laser cutter to assist pupils in achieving their outcomes. CorelDraw, SketchUp and Fusion 360 are used extensively to help pupils in modelling and developing their ideas. Traditional equipment such as lathes and milling machines are housed in our well-resourced workshop.
The successful candidate will have a broad-based knowledge of materials and be reliable, organised, calm and flexible with an enthusiasm for design as well as being confident dealing with pupils. You will be competent in a range of manufacturing techniques and have practical experience of using tools and machines including pillar drill and band saw; experience with a centre lathe and milling machine would be desirable. Previous DT technician experience within a school or relevant industry experience is essential.
For the teaching role we are accepting applications from qualified teachers and from unqualified teachers who have significant industry experience and would like to move into a teaching position.
When applying please clearly state which role(s) you are applying for.
