We are seeking a dedicated Food Technology Teacher to join a specialist SEN school in the Croydon area.

As the Food Technology Teacher, you will plan and deliver practical, differentiated Food Technology lessons tailored to meet individual needs. You will support pupils in developing cooking skills, understanding nutrition and building independence, while working closely with support staff to ensure lessons are accessible and engaging. The role also involves promoting positive behaviour, supporting social development and maintaining a safe, well-managed learning environment.
