Teacher of Design and Technology

The Design & Technology department at Wren Academy Enfield provides a creative, innovative, and inclusive environment where interactive and challenging lessons enable students to immerse themselves fully in the creative process. Students enjoy a diverse range of topics which are explored through a range of activities that drive innovation, independent problem solving and reflection. 

There are currently three members of the Design & Technology team, including a specialist technician, we work very closely with our Art department and we often collaborate with subject areas across the school to make cross-curricular links as well as streamline the delivery of applied Maths and Science within the subject. With our Sixth Form centre opening next year, this is an exciting opportunity for a newly qualified or experienced Design & Technology teacher to bring their expertise and ingenuity to the department.

Wren Academy Enfield opened in September 2020 with a first cohort of Year 7 students and has then grown each year with the addition of a new year group. Our oldest students are now in Year 11, and we are planning for the start of GCSEs followed by the creation of an academic Sixth Form offering the full range of A Levels.
