Computer Science Teacher

Outwood Academy Acklam, Middlesbrough, seeks to appoint an enthusiastic and committed Computer Science Teacher to join our current team.

About the department

Our faculty comprises Art, Design Technology, Hospitality & Catering, Computer Science and Business Studies. The team consists of seven passionate teachers, each with their own areas of expertise and experience; we are also supported by two specialist technicians who cover DT, Art and Catering. The faculty was formed in April 2023 when Technologies, Art and Computing joined together under the leadership of our Head of Faculty, Mrs K Smith. As a faculty, we provide most of the KS4 option subjects across the school and therefore have a unique opportunity to expertly support our students in building their future. We work collaboratively as a team to ensure our students get the best of specialist teaching across the range of subjects whilst also ensuring that all of our teachers have a network of open, supportive and friendly peers to rely on.
