Teacher of Design & Technology (Full time)

Burlington House School is a unique and successful Independent Day School in London for children with dyslexia and associated SpLDs, consisting of separate Prep, Secondary and Sixth Form sites in Hammersmith and Fulham. An additional Senior School site opened in Tooting this year.

“Burlington House is fast becoming London’s gold-standard for specialist education” (Good Schools Guide, 2023).

We are seeking to appoint a full-time Design and Technology (3D Design) teacher to deliver Yr6 - Yr11 DT, up to GCSE level, as part of our highly successful Art and Design Department.

This position will be based at the Burlington House Senior School site in Fulham. Class sizes are favourable, with an average of 10 pupils per class at Key Stage 2 and 3 and very small groups at GCSE Level. Candidates should have excellent skills in ICT, communication, organisation as well as in-depth subject area knowledge, including practical use of DT machinery and tools. All staff and pupils are provided with a laptop computer.

We offer an excellent professional development and remuneration package and the opportunity to apply and develop your expertise in a genuinely all-through educational setting. Burlington House School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. You will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check.

"The school’s learning environment focuses on the arts, drama and physical education, catering to children who may not thrive in a mainstream setting. Burlington has helped students achieve the best GCSE results for an SpLD specialist school in the UK." (The Week UK's Schools Review, 2024). 

Burlington House School’s focus on the arts, including Art and Design, is central to the way we support our pupils to discover their own pathway to success. This opportunity is perfect for someone who wants to make a real difference to young people’s lives, as well as develop their professional standing in the fastest-growing group of specialist schools in the sector.
