Food Technology Teacher

Location: Barnet, North London

A specialist school in Barnet is seeking a dedicated Food Technology Teacher who wants to do more than deliver a syllabus.

This role focuses on practical learning, independence, and confidence-building. You will work with small classes in a supportive environment where progress is measured in life skills as well as academic outcomes.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Small class sizes of up to 6 students with high levels of support

  • Time to teach creatively and adapt lessons properly
  • A calm, well-structured setting with supportive leadership

The Role

You will:

  • Plan and deliver engaging Food Technology lessons tailored to individual needs
  • Use cooking and food preparation to develop independence and confidence
  • Maintain a safe, organised, and well-resourced learning environment
  • Track progress and contribute to personalised learning outcomes
  • Work collaboratively with teaching assistants and wider professionals

The Person

You will:

  • Hold QTS or an equivalent teaching qualification
  • Have experience teaching Food Technology (SEN experience desirable, not essential)
  • Be patient, adaptable, and confident in managing behaviour
  • Be committed to safeguarding and inclusive education

What Is Offered

  • Supportive leadership and a collaborative staff team
  • Well-equipped Food Technology facilities
  • Ongoing CPD and professional development
  • A genuinely rewarding teaching role

This post is subject to enhanced DBS checks and satisfactory references in line with safeguarding requirements.
