The posting

TEACHER OF DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY

The Norton Knatchbull School is looking for a Teacher of Design & Technology (DT) with a start date of January 2027. This is a permanent full-time position. We welcome applicants from either selective or wide ability settings, who are keen to work with high achieving and motivated students in a strong department. The post is equally suitable for an ECT or a more experienced colleague looking for a new challenge.

The DT department is a strong and welcoming team of 6 experienced staff and a full-time technician. At Norton Knatchbull School an average of 60% of students study DT at GCSE and numbers taking A Level DT:Product Design are strong and growing, with significant numbers of students pursuing DT related study at degree level. The DT Department is well equipped with two specialist workshops which have been recently refurbished, and two large design studios with CAD CAM class facilities.

The Department has a number of 3D printers and 2 laser cutters that students use alongside the workshop tools and equipment in their iterative processes. All students have the opportunity to work with a range of materials and processes including wood, metal, plastics, graphics, Computer Aided Design, textiles, and electronics in their project-based learning, along with some food & nutrition at KS3. A knowledge of at least two of these areas would be beneficial.

The successful applicant will be joining a vibrant, supportive, successful and cohesive department. They will be expected to have the ability to teach DT up to GCSE and A Level.

Experienced colleagues will be expected to be demonstrate a proven track record of examination success -and in the case of an ECT evidence of the potential to do so. We are looking for an excellent classroom practitioner who can inspire both colleagues and students and lead by example.

Deadline for applications: 9am - Thursday 8th October 2026.

We reserve the right to interview prior to this date depending on applications received.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
