What skills and experience we're looking for

This role entails teaching Design and Technology and Food and Nutrition to KeyStage 3 and 4. Applications from teachers from both specialisms are welcomed, but preference would be given to a suitably qualified teacher with a Food and Nutrition specialism. Teachers from a non-Food background should be prepared to deliver that subject to Key Stage 4 if they were successful at interview. The post holder will join our friendly and creative DT and Food department, led by an experienced Head of DT and supported by a skilled technician. Food and Nutrition has been an extremely popular subject with our students, and this is a great opportunity to be part of a successful team as we move into GCSE provision. Please see the attached job description and person specification for more information. For ECTs, please also see the letter from Mrs Kate Vincent, Assistant Headteacher, who leads our ECT programme.

What the school offers its staff

King’s School is an ecumenical Christian School in the Diocese of Chichester. Our work and relationships are based upon the four core Christian values of Love, Forgiveness, Respect and Responsibility and through these we encourage and support every student and member of staff to be the best that they can be.

The school opened its doors to its first cohort of students in September 2013, when it was based on a small temporary site. There are currently just over 800 students in years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, and a team of over 75 teachers and support staff. In September 2019 the school moved into its permanent site in Hangleton. We are now lucky to enjoy purpose-built facilities for all areas of the curriculum and stunning views of the South Downs. This was the culmination of six years of hard work and planning and marked the beginning of an exciting new stage in the school’s development. Our next milestone will be the opening of our Sixth Form in 2023. Planning and preparation for this are well underway. Applicants are encouraged to review our Sixth Form website for more information.

Commitment to safeguarding

We are completely committed to safeguarding the welfare of our students. Those who work for us are expected to share this commitment, which will be fully tested as part of the selection process. All offers of employment will be subject to the individual undergoing an enhanced barred list check.
