The posting

We are looking to appoint a dedicated and enthusiastic Technology Teacher with a specialism in Food to join our successful Technology Department. Food and Hospitality and Catering are popular and successful subjects at Shevington High School, with Hospitality and Catering being one of the highest-performing subjects in the school last year. We are looking for someone who shares our ambition to build on this success and provide an excellent experience for our students.

As Food and Hospitality and Catering continue to grow in popularity, there is also the opportunity for a suitable candidate to take on additional responsibility for leading and developing this subject area, working alongside the Curriculum Leader for Technology. A TLR may be available for a candidate who demonstrates the experience, skills and ambition to take Food and Hospitality and Catering into the next stage of its development.

The Technology Department currently delivers the Technical Award in Hospitality and Catering and a Technology and Food rotation at KS3.There are 2 other specialists in the team who deliver GCSE Design and Technology and GCSE 3D Design. The successful candidate will have strong subject knowledge and experience of teaching Food at KS3, together with the knowledge and skills required to deliver Hospitality and Catering effectively at KS4. Our curriculum is well established and comprehensively resourced, with detailed schemes of work, lesson materials and knowledge organisers in place. We are looking for a teacher who will make effective use of these resources while bringing their own expertise to the classroom and continuing to develop their practice through collaboration with colleagues.

This is an exciting time to join Shevington High School. The Technology Department is very well resourced, with our practical Food teaching space refurbished last year. The department also has access to its own computer room, while all students have their own device to support research, independent learning and coursework-based tasks. A full-time Food Technician provides dedicated support with resourcing, ordering and the preparation of lessons, as well as supporting practical sessions. The department also plays an active role in our primary transition programme, providing opportunities for younger pupils to experience Food and Technology before joining the school.

The successful candidate will play an important role in developing our students’ knowledge, skills and enthusiasm for Food and Hospitality and Catering. Alongside delivering high-quality classroom and practical teaching, we want someone who will look for opportunities to enrich students’ experiences through trips, extracurricular activities and wider opportunities that bring the subject to life.

We are seeking someone who is:

  • An enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher with a genuine passion for Technology, Food, Hospitality and Catering.
  • An ambitious classroom practitioner who has high expectations for all learners and is committed to delivering high-quality teaching.
  • A reflective professional who is keen to develop their practice and work collaboratively as part of a supportive department.
  • Someone who builds positive relationships with young people and creates a calm, purposeful and inclusive learning environment.
  • A positive team member who is keen to contribute to the wider life of the department and school.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Delivering high-quality Food teaching at KS3 and Hospitality and Catering at KS4.
  • Using and adapting the department’s established curriculum and resources to meet the needs of all students.
  • Supporting students to achieve strong outcomes through effective teaching, assessment and intervention.
  • Working collaboratively with the Technology team and Food Technician to provide high-quality practical learning.
  • Contributing to enrichment, extracurricular opportunities within the department.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a supportive and well-resourced department and to play an important role in the continued development of Food and Hospitality and Catering at Shevington High School.

Above all, we are seeking someone with the right character, values and commitment to make a genuine contribution to our school community and to the lives of the young people we serve

The school reserves the right to interview and appoint this position ahead of any advised application closing date should an appropriate candidate be found. Therefore, it is advisable to submit applications as early as possible.
