We are seeking to appoint a Technology Technician to join our Design & Technology team, this will be an exciting and stimulating role where you will support with both preparation and during the delivery of lessons to students who are keen to learn and achieve. Technology is popular amongst students and enjoys high esteem within the school community.
We encourage the enjoyment of Technology through the study of a wide range of interesting and challenging projects. The use of key terminology and the application of different technological advances is something we see as key to student academic achievement. As a department, we recognise that applying real world scenarios to design problems is important. Students enjoy using the google classroom suite in lessons and for completing homework. It is important from a cultural capital perspective that we try and bring as much industrial knowledge into the classroom as possible to make links.
The Technology department always seeks opportunities to enhance student learning through educational visits to New Designers and Leeds University, extra-curricular clubs such as the CAD CAM club and Textiles and Food clubs. We get involved in many competitions, both within and beyond school and have had considerable successes. The department runs an eco team that combines members of the school council across year groups along with school ambassadors. We promote environmental responsibility throughout the schemes of work we teach.
