Primary Teacher - Leading and Delivering Specialist Technology job summary

Hours: 0.8fte
Salary: MPS/UPS
Contract: Permanent 

The Trust has a unique opportunity for an experienced Primary Teacher to lead and deliver specialist technology across the Primary phase.  

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who believes that children learn by designing, testing, and improving. We are looking for a teacher who can inspire pupils to work with their hands, develop practical skills, and turn their ideas into real projects. 

The Trust’s approach to Design & Technology goes beyond normal design activities. Pupils will have opportunities to work with wood, card, textiles, mechanisms, tools, and a range of materials, developing the skills and confidence they need to design unique products within a designated workshop.

This is a great career opportunity for a creative, forward thinking teacher to inspire practical design and learning. 

Main Roles and Responsibilities: 

  • Plan and deliver high-quality teaching within assigned subjects and curriculum areas, using secure subject and pedagogical knowledge.
  • Lead or share leadership responsibility for identified curriculum areas, as agreed with Trust and school leaders.
  • Ensure that pupils are taught to use equipment, tools, materials and resources safely and responsibly.
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues to develop curriculum provision, resources and approaches to teaching.
  • Undertake relevant professional development and training associated with assigned teaching, curriculum and health-and-safety responsibilities.

Why Join Us? 

As well as a rewarding career within an established Multi Academy Trust, we offer the following employee benefits - 

  • An excellent pension scheme with a generous employer contribution from the Trust.
  • 24/7 access to our Employee Assistance Programme, providing confidential wellbeing and support services.
  • Comprehensive mental health and wellbeing support for all staff through Dittolo.
  • Access to The Nest, our childcare provision in Ashington and Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, offering both paid and free 30-hour places for eligible families.
  • CPD opportunities with support from across the Trust. 
  • Gym membership discounts, with reduced rates at Sculpt Ashington and Places Leisure.
  • Eligibility for a Blue Light Card, giving Trust staff exclusive discounts at major retailers including Apple, JD Sports and TUI.

If you are ready for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you!
