What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic teacher of computer science and ICT to join an innovative, vibrant and supportive department where teachers are committed to developing learning strategies which challenge and interest all of our students. The successful candidate will join a thriving vocational faculty in a school where there is strong uptake of both computer science and ICT courses at both key stage four and key stage five. Computing is a popular subject, with well attended clubs, including a sponsored robotics club that has been able to enter two teams into national competitions. Our Sixth Form students play an active role in these extracurricular activities and have an excellent track record of moving onto Russell Group universities and competitive degree apprenticeships. Our vocational faculty comprises four teachers, and is based in a dedicated block with three full-size computer suites and one smaller computer suite for Sixth Form teaching. There will be an opportunity for a leadership role within this faculty and we will be happy to discuss this with applicants.

You will possess energy, enthusiasm and the desire to inspire a love of the computing. You will be responsible for delivering computer science and ICT lessons in line with relevant curriculum requirements, ensuring high standards of teaching and learning are maintained, whilst collaborating with the wider vocational faculty to sustain and maximise student progress.
