Teacher of Design and Technology (Food and Nutrition) - St Peter's Church of England Voluntary Aided School
- Exeter, Devon
- Part Time
- TPS
Required from September 2026.
St Peter’s is an oversubscribed school, known as a high performing school and nationally recognised for our approaches to character education. Our most recent Ofsted inspection (‘Good’ April 2025) and Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools (SIAMS) inspection (‘Excellent’ May 2019) indicate the significant progress we have made in developing well rounded students who ‘live life to the full’. As a Beacon School, Relational and Restorative Approaches are key to how we educate for a wise, courageous and compassionate community.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and innovative Design and Technology Teacher with experience in teaching Food & Nutrition up to General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) level. GCSE Food & Nutrition is an extremely popular choice every year at St Peter’s and has a strong track record of success. The department is well resourced and supported, having two part time Food Technicians and dedicated purpose built rooms. The ability to teach across the department will also be advantageous. This is an exciting opportunity to join an ambitious department of specialists and teach Design and Technology across Key Stage 3 and 4. As well as early career teachers, this post could also be suitable for more experienced teachers.
Our students make working here a real pleasure and, as such, we have high expectations for both our students and ourselves.
We offer:
• A welcoming and friendly team of excellent staff.
• A supportive working environment.
• Students with a drive to succeed.
A willingness and ability to offer time and energy to our wellbeing programme and/or extra-curricular provision (which we believe adds significant value to our character based approaches to education, including our Duke of Edinburgh and Ten Tors) will be taken into consideration for applications.
As a Church of England Aided School, in cases of equal merit preference will be given to candidates who are in sympathy with the foundation.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults, and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Please refer to our child protection policy: www.spexe.org/593/key-information-policies/key_information/3/safeguarding-esafety.
