How would you like to get paid for five days, but only work four?

At Outcomes First Group, we believe in better work/life balance — and we’re putting wellbeing first.

That’s why we’re proud to be part of a 4-Day Working Week (4DWW) trial, where you can work one day less each week (or equivalent hours), while still receiving your full-time pay.

Many of our schools have already introduced the 4DWW — and others are preparing to roll it out as soon as they reach full staffing. So, whether it’s already in place or just around the corner, now’s the perfect time to join #teamOFG.

Job Title: Design & Food Tech Teacher
Location: Baston House School, Bromley, Kent BR2 7AB
Salary: £39,000 - £46,000 per annum, dependent on experience (not pro rata)
Hours: 37.5 hours per week | Monday to Friday | 8.30am – 4.30pm

As part of our continued growth, Baston House School in Bromley is seeking an experienced Design & Food Technology Teacher to join our dynamic and supportive team, inspiring pupils to explore creativity and develop practical skills.

About the Role

At Baston House, we believe learning should be engaging, hands-on, and full of possibilities.

If you’re ready to bring your ideas, energy, and passion to a place where they truly matter, this is the role for you.
