Do you have a passion for food, creativity in the kitchen, and a flair for teaching? Ready to inspire the next generation of chefs, nutritionists, and food lovers? We’ve got a fantastic opportunity for a Food Technology Teacher in a vibrant secondary school in Medway.

About the Role
We’re looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic Food Technology Teacher to join a forward-thinking DT department in a supportive and inclusive school community. You’ll be delivering exciting, hands-on lessons across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 — teaching everything from food safety and nutrition to practical cooking and presentation skills.

This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced teacher or an ECT ready to bring fresh energy to the classroom. With a well-equipped kitchen suite and strong departmental support, you’ll have the tools to thrive.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering engaging Food Tech lessons that combine theory, creativity, and real-life application

  
  

• Preparing students for GCSE success through practical and written assessments

  
  

• Promoting healthy eating, food safety, and a love for cooking

  
  

• Contributing to curriculum development and extracurricular activities (think cooking clubs and school bake-offs!)

  
  

• Creating a safe, inclusive and dynamic learning environment

  
  

  What We’re Looking For

  • QTS with a specialism in Food Technology (DT)

    
    

  • Experience teaching Food Tech at Key Stage 3 and 4

    
    

  • Strong classroom management and excellent communication skills

    
    

  • Passion for your subject and an ability to make learning accessible and exciting

    
    

  • ECTs are encouraged to apply – your fresh ideas are welcome!

    
    

    Why This School?

    • A welcoming and inclusive community with strong leadership

      
      

    • Well-resourced Food Tech classrooms and practical facilities

      
      

    • Supportive SLT and an emphasis on staff development

      
      

    • Opportunities to get involved in whole-school projects and enrichment

      
      

    • A culture that values creativity, wellbeing, and real-world learning

      
      

      Why Work with TeacherActive?

      • A personal education consultant available 24/7 to support you

        
        

      • Access to our Guaranteed Pay Scheme (T&Cs apply)

        
        

      • Free CPD and training through our 'My-Progression' programme

        
        

      • Competitive pay rates, paid through PAYE – no hidden fees or umbrella deductions

        
        

      • Refer a friend scheme – earn up to £100 per successful referral (T&Cs apply)
