The Business & Computing department at Deptford Green are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate Computing teacher to join us in January. We aim to develop confident, forward-thinking learners who are knowledgeable about the use and purpose of technology in everyday life. Our main focus is to develop learners who are reflective and logical thinkers with the ability to apply computational techniques when solving problems.

In KS3 students learning is based on the National Computing Curriculum.

In KS4 students build on the knowledge, understanding, and skills established through the Computing elements of the Key Stage 3 programme of study, by choosing either to study GCSE Computer Science or OCR Cambridge Nationals.

We are looking for someone with energy and commitment, who embodies the school's GREAT values.

Candidates are encouraged to contact us before applying or to visit the school to meet our wonderful students and have a tour of our outstanding facilities. Please contact Anita Grist, Head of HR, at agrist@deptfordgreen.co.uk, if you are interested in visiting our school.
