Could this be you?
Whether you are an experienced teacher, an Early Career Teacher (ECT), a Computer Science graduate considering a career in teaching, or someone looking to retrain and share your passion for technology, we would love to hear from you. We offer mentoring, guidance and professional development to support those at the beginning of their teaching journey, helping you grow in confidence and develop into an excellent teacher.
If Computer Science is the thing that makes you look at the world and wonder how it works, read on.
We’re not just after a Computer Science teacher. We want someone who sees possibilities in a line of code, creativity in a digital idea and potential in every student; someone who loves solving problems, exploring technology and helping young people discover what they can create.
Because Computer Science, at its best, is rather more than learning to code. It is understanding how things work, how systems think and how a few lines of Python can become something remarkable. It is the challenge of taking a problem apart, finding a solution and making it work. And in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence and digital technologies, there has never been a more exciting time to teach it.
You’ll work with bright, curious young people from 1st Form to Sixth Form, inspiring them through programming, algorithms, computer systems and digital media. From introducing younger pupils to the possibilities of computing to preparing Sixth Formers for their next steps, there is plenty of scope to challenge, inspire and surprise.
You’ll join a small, ambitious Computing department determined to help every student reach their potential. We’re looking for someone who brings energy and imagination to the classroom, with interests that might stretch into games development, web and app design, animation, AI or other creative technologies.
We want someone who can turn a tricky concept into an ‘aha!’ moment, encourage experimentation and show young people that technology is something they can shape, not simply consume. Our Computing provision has enormous potential, and we want to make it stronger still.
If you’re an enthusiastic Computer Scientist, an inspiring teacher and someone who still gets a thrill when a piece of code finally works or a student creates something they never thought possible, do get in touch.
