Job Description

Calling All Creators, Makers & Future-Inspirers!

DT Teacher - Chelmsford
Chelmsford | Full-time | Term Time | Creativity encouraged daily

Can you turn ideas into reality? Are glue guns, prototypes and workshop projects your happy place? Do you believe the words "let's build it" can solve almost anything?

Then grab your toolkit - because schools in Chelmsford are looking for an amazing Design & Technology Teacher to inspire the next generation of designers, inventors and problem-solvers.

This isn't just teaching. This is sparking creativity, encouraging big ideas and showing students that learning can be hands-on, practical and seriously fun.



Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

Deliver engaging DT lessons that students actually look forward to

Inspire creativity, problem-solving and innovation
Support students in bringing ideas from sketchbook to reality
Make workshops and classrooms exciting places to learn
Encourage confidence, curiosity and a "give it a go" attitude



You'll fit right in if you:

✔ Have experience teaching DT (or the passion and knowledge to inspire)
✔ Can turn lessons into exciting, hands-on experiences
✔ Know your way around design processes and practical learning
✔ Have patience, energy and a good sense of humour
✔ Don't panic when a project gets a little… creatively ambitious



In return:

No two days are ever the same
Join welcoming and supportive schools across Chelmsford
Ongoing opportunities for training and development
The chance to inspire future engineers, designers and innovators

Possible side effects of this role include: becoming a favourite teacher, receiving questionable handmade gifts, and hearing "Sir/Miss, look what I made!" at least 27 times a day.

Ready to build something great? Apply today and help shape the future - one project at a time.
