Whether you are a newly qualified teacher looking to get the best start in the teaching profession, or a more experienced and ambitious colleague wishing to progress your career, this vibrant and successful school can help you to develop and flourish.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and inspirational IT and Computing Teacher to join a committed and effective team of specialist teachers and who will participate fully in the life of the school.

Lytchett Minster School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Any offer of employment will be subject to receipt of a satisfactory DBS Enhanced Disclosure and acceptable references.
Lytchett Minster School will conduct online searches of shortlisted candidates. This will be part of a safeguarding check, and the search will purely be based on whether an individual is suitable to work with children. All aspects of social media and internet searches will be conducted. As care must be taken to avoid unconscious bias and any risk of discrimination, a person who will not be on the appointment panel will conduct the searches and will only share information if and when findings are relevant and of concern.
