Broughton High School is founded on the values of respect, inclusion and integrity. We have high aspirations for our young people and believe that together we achieve more. Located to the north of Edinburgh's city centre, our school building is a superb example of modern architecture: its appearance inspires those who learn and work here, and it operates very effectively as a learning environment.
Broughton fully integrates and embraces three specialist provisions into the life and work of the school: the Edinburgh Music School, the SFA Performance School and the Specialist Dance Unit.
We believe in enabling every young person to fulfil their potential as an individual and as a member of their wider community. We emphasise the importance of excellent teaching and learning and strive to deliver flexible learning pathways that meet the needs of all young people.
This is an exciting opportunity to build the capacity of our Technologies team. We are seeking an excellent educator with proven ICT experience in a secondary and/or primary setting. Strong interpersonal skills to inspire and motivate others are important, alongside a commitment to championing the rights of all our young people.
We also invite applications from Primary Teachers who can teach ICT across the Curriculum and are able to deliver technologies up to the end of the BGE (S3).
