We wish to appoint a highly motivated science technician to make a real impact in this rapidly improving school. Over the last five years we have assembled an excellent group of leaders, teachers and support staff who have had a significant impact on the quality of outcomes at the school. With an aspirational culture, and a commitment to evidence informed teaching, we want to achieve more. We were judged “Good” in all areas in our last Ofsted inspection (July 2021) and student outcomes are strong. Our 6th form outcomes are amongst the best in the region. We have made significant improvements to our curriculum, teaching, and professional development programme and we are committed to reducing staff workload.
Framwellgate School Durham is an 11-18 non-selective secondary school and Single Academy Trust. The school roll has increased by 35% over the last five years, and we now have more than 1300 students who attend the school. The successful candidate will possess expertise alongside energy and enthusiasm. A willingness to learn, train and develop are all essential. We can offer you an environment where student behaviour is excellent, prior attainment levels are amongst the highest in the North-East, and our students and staff are a pleasure to work with. Framwellgate School Durham has been selected to be part of the latest phase in the Schools Rebuilding Programme and we envisage a fantastic new school building to be ready for September 2025.
As a science technician you will provide support to the science department by co-ordinating the use of practical resources and providing advice in meeting the practical needs of the department, as well as providing in-class support to teaching staff and students, ensuring the maintenance of a healthy and safe working environment and several other duties outlined in the job description.

Framwellgate School Durham (FSD) is an 11-18 school which was granted academy status in 2011. There are approximately 1300 students on roll including 140 in the Sixth Form. Within the next two years, we envisage a roll of 1400 including 230+ in the sixth form. The school serves the population to the north of Durham city, primarily from the Newton Hall estate, but we attract students from a wide surrounding area and over 20 feeder primary schools. We are a high achieving 11-18 academy with a strong track record in both provision and outcomes. We are fully committed to the students in our care, and work to ensure that both the pastoral provision and quality of teaching is the very best.
