Are you an experienced teacher of A-level ICT and Computer Science interested in hearing of new roles from October 2020; are you still yet to find your ideal role for this term? If not, Tradewind Recruitment want to hear from you today!

An OFSTED graded 'Outstanding' school in the borough of Hounslow have contacted us to assist in the urgent recruitment of a full-time A-level ICT and Computer Science Teacher to join them from October 2020 on either a long-term contract for the rest of the academic year, with the view to a permanent contract or on an immediate permanent contract; the role offers a very competitive salary available in line with experience (Main Pay Scale Inner London - £28,660 - £39,006). The reason for the late vacancy is due to a current ICT Teacher relocating last-minute and as a result the school have been left short of an ICT and Computer Science Teacher going in to the new academic year; the proactive SLT will interview suitable CVs weekly throughout the summer break until a suitable replacement can be found.
Tradewind Recruitment have supplied staff to this school for the last 15 years so can vouch for what a brilliant environment it is to work in. The behaviour is deemed 'Outstanding' and the support from the staff base is second to none, regardless of the department.

The school is set in a brand new £20 million-pound building built on the old playing fields. It opened this October 2016 so it is a very exciting time to join the school. We successfully helped the school recruit 3 permanent members of staff for the beginning of this academic year and they are all giving excellent feedback from their respective departments.
It is a medium sized school, which-feedback states-enables the school to give all pupils the close attention and individual help they need to best develop their talents. Catering for a wide range of academic ability, current GCSE are at an all-time high and they are proud to be in the top 100 schools nationally for KS2-GCSE 'value added'.
The department is made up of 10 full-time members of staff, 2 part-time and 2 ICT technicians; experienced and newly qualified teachers alike so regardless of your level of experience you will be joined by like minded colleagues. Tradewind Recruitment have supplied this particular department with staff many times over the years and as a result can vouch for the level of support you will receive in the next step of your career.
