Job overview

We are seeking a Teacher of Food Technology to join our clos-knit Technology Department; somebody who is open to new ideas, willing to experiment and who sees teaching as a reflective and ongoing discipline. This position will also encompass some Design Technology teaching.

At Bohunt Horsham the emphasis for students is placed on them learning words that they can use to talk, write and debate the big questions of the world. The successful candidate therefore, will be somebody who sees the potential of a curriculum as a narrative and the development of language for the curriculum as essential.

What is special about Bohunt Horsham?

  • An unparalleled culture of unconditional positive regard across the entire school community.  
  • Relationships amongst staff built on shared values, professional respect and investment in one another.
  • Students who are curious, compassionate and proud to be ambassadors of their school. 
  • Regular opportunities for career progression arising within the school and across the Trust.
  • State-of-the-art facilities, specialist teaching spaces and whole school one to one iPad provision.
  • An exceptional program of staff development, with Wednesday afternoons given over to CPD. 
  • A shared curriculum, supportive departments, and a cross-Trust network of subject specialists. 


We are a free school and we are home to students in Years 7-11 in the Secondary Phase and Reception in the Primary Phase. Over the next few years, we will grow to become an all-through school for 1620 students aged 4-16 with a nursery facility. As an iPad 1-2-1 school, we strive for original and inspired use of technology to aid learning and to impact positively on staff workload and ensuring a sustainable work-life balance.

We are proud to be part of the supportive and innovative Bohunt Education Trust, a MAT with nine schools including two Sixth Forms and a boarding facility. We may be separated geographically; however, all BET schools share an uncompromising belief in high achievement and high expectations, a real sense of community and a dynamic, innovative approach to education. Every BET school is unique, with its own distinctive identity, allowing staff to have autonomy over their work environment. We have a number of colleagues within our team who have returned to education, excited by the opportunities that our ever-expanding community offers. Feedback from visitors, trainee teachers, parents, governors and local politicians always highlights the positivity of our staff and students, as well as the warmth and openness with which they are received.

Bohunt Education Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting welfare of children and young people and requires all staff and volunteers to share and demonstrate this commitment.
