Post Graduate Teacher of Design Engineering & Tech
Wellington College is seeking to appoint a Postgraduate Teacher of Design, Engineering and Technology to join a dynamic and collaborative department within our Science, Technology and Engineering faculty. Located in Crowthorne, Berkshire, with train and bus links providing easy access to transport connections, our 400 acre estate is a unique and inspiring place to work.
This role offers an excellent opportunity for a graduate teacher at an early stage of their career on this fixed term contract to develop strong classroom practice while contributing to an academically ambitious and forward‑looking subject area. You will be supported by experienced colleagues and benefit from high‑quality facilities, technical support and a culture that values professional learning, innovation and reflection.
The Role
As a Postgraduate Teacher of Design, Engineering and Technology, you will teach pupils aged 13–18 across iGCSE and Sixth Form pathways, contributing to courses at iGCSE, A Level and/or IB in line with departmental needs. You will plan and deliver engaging, challenging lessons that encourage independent thinking, analytical skills and intellectual curiosity, while ensuring pupils feel known, supported and appropriately stretched.
You will work closely with colleagues across the faculty, contributing to shared planning, assessment and curriculum development. Assessment and feedback will be used thoughtfully to support pupil progress, inform teaching and guide intervention where required. Alongside classroom teaching, you will play an active role in tutoring and pastoral care, supporting pupils’ academic and personal development within a seven‑day boarding environment.
Accommodation on site may be provided, subject to availability.
