Graduate Teacher of Design
Role Introduction
There are six places each year and subject availability varies. This year, we are able to support Graduate Teachers in the following departments:Chemistry, Computer Science, Design, Divinity, English, Geography, Mathematics and Physics.
We are seeking an enthusiastic Graduate Teacher of Design to join our dynamic and successful department. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate to begin their teaching career in a well-equipped and forward-looking team.
The department is housed in the purpose-built Design Schools, with outstanding facilities including CAD studios, an engineering workshop with hot metals, a multi-media workshop, and rapid prototyping equipment such as CNC machinery and 3D printers. Pupils also benefit from enrichment through the Engineering and Design Society, which welcomes a wide range of visiting speakers.
Design is popular at all levels: all Year 9 pupils study the subject, around 70 pursue the CIE IGCSE Resistant Materials course, and many progress to CIE A level Design & Technology. Facilities remain open beyond timetabled hours, encouraging independent and creative project work.
With excellent resources, a supportive team of four teachers and two technicians, and a strong tradition of innovation, the department is ideally placed to support and inspire graduate teachers at the start of their career.
