The Role

As our Secondary School grows into Year 9, we are looking for someone who is invigorated by the challenge of developing and delivering the Key Stage 3 Computing and ICT curriculum alongside our existing Computing team. An enjoyment of this specific phase of education is vital, but we also want applicants who are excited by the challenge of planning our growth towards the exam cycles up ahead.

At DBSJ, we believe great teaching is rooted in empathy, driven by evidence, and powered by community. Our teachers are collaborators, curriculum shapers, and culture builders.

Key Responsibilities

Teaching & Learning

• Plan and deliver purposeful, inclusive, and challenging lessons aligned with the National Curriculum for England.
• Use assessment data, student voice, and observations to personalise learning and support progress for all.
• Reflect regularly on the impact of teaching strategies, with a commitment to continuous improvement.
• Build a learning environment that fosters independence, celebrates neurodiversity, and encourages risk-taking.

Contribution to School Culture

• Collaborate across teams and departments to align curriculum and ensure progression.
• Participate actively in extra-curricular, enrichment, and community engagement initiatives.
• Uplift colleagues through supportive teamwork and shared professional inquiry.
• Contribute to the welcoming and inclusive atmosphere of the school through modelling professionalism and hospitality.

Professional Growth

• Set personal goals for professional learning and reflect openly on growth areas.
• Champion the school’s belief that education is complex, evolving, and worthy of curiosity.
• Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning — both for self and others.

Our Professional Commitments

At DBSJ, we believe that who you are as an educator is as important as what you teach. Our teachers align with four core beliefs:

• All students can succeed.
• Our community is of high importance.
• High-performing teams act with integrity, care, and professionalism.
• Education is a complex, ever-changing landscape.

These beliefs underpin our professional accountability, which supports staff in moving from passive alignment to culture-enhancing professional behaviors. We are a school that values curiosity, vulnerability, high standards, and the ability to grow alongside our students.
