Our extremely successful design and technology department aims to equip our pupils for the future and inspire a passion for design, technology and engineering.

We have a well-resourced department with state of the art facilities. Our DT rooms all include a wide range of CNC machinery as well as traditional machines, alongside this we have a specialist engineering building sponsored by the Reece Foundation, which includes; a lecture theatre, specialist electronics area, IT suite and workshop. The design and technology team is led by a head of design and technology and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to develop within an established and supportive team of colleagues, whilst also having the professional freedom to develop our engineering offer. The ideal candidate will be passionate about design and technology but especially the engineering curriculum and how this can be taught in an inspiring way to maximise outcomes, whilst both instilling and developing a love for the subject.
