Deadline Date: 26th March 2026

Applications are invited for a position as a ‘Teacher of Computer Science’ from September 2026. This is an excellent opportunity to join a strong and talented department. The successful candidate will shape the department’s culture and promote the value of Computer Science in the school community.

We would also welcome applications from well-qualified, committed graduates who would like to train as a Computer Science teacher. This position might suit a professional who is looking to change careers and train as a teacher, or it might suit a recent university graduate. Yarm School offers the Secondary PGCE with QTS in association with the University of Buckingham. This award is of exactly the same standing as the PGCEs awarded by university education departments or the direct training schemes run by state schools. It qualifies students to teach in any maintained or independent school in the country.

If you have any further queries about the teaching role, or wish to discuss the training opportunity further, please contact the Deputy Head Academic, Mr Darren Morton (dkm@yarmschool.org).

Outline details of how we support the training process at Yarm School can be found in our Teaching Training Booklet.
