What skills and experience we're looking for

Acland Burghley School is seeking to appoint an outstanding teacher of Design Technology from September 2025 (or earlier), to join our friendly and successful staff team. Some experience of delivering food technology would be welcomed but is not essential.

This is an excellent career opportunity for a strong classroom teacher to work in a thriving comprehensive which has inclusion at its core. You would be joining a dynamic Creative Arts and Technology team at an exciting moment for the school. Our workshops are spacious with advanced fabrication technologies and, the addition of a Food Technology room has further enhanced our curriculum. The focus on developing students’ innovation, problem-solving and hands-on practical skills as well as their own self-management ensures that they are equipped to flourish in the modern world. In addition to this, our unique partnership with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, who now have their offices and rehearsals on our site, places Creative Arts at the centre of our curriculum vision.

What the school offers its staff

The successful candidate will be passionate about learning in Technology, and will demonstrate a strong commitment to ensuring that every child achieves the highest possible standards. Extra-curricular activities, including clubs and trips to galleries, are an important part of the offer. This post would be suitable for a well-qualified ECT, or a more experienced teacher looking for a different experience in a new context.

Commitment to safeguarding

Acland Burghley School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All successful candidates will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS Check, online vetting check and to demonstrate full understanding of the school’s safeguarding policies and procedures.
