The Garibaldi School is a successful, popular 11-18 school which serves its local community well by providing a first-rate education for all its students.  We are a growing and over-subscribed school with ‘Leading Edge Status’. Our latest Ofsted inspection classified us as a ‘Good’ School.

We have created a safe environment where students can feel comfortable, well supported and confident.  Our philosophy is based on developing pride in our students for themselves, the school and their community. They are encouraged to have respect for each other and the staff that support them.  We expect all students to aim high and achieve well and for staff to be the ultimate best they can be.

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, motivated and dynamic IT Technician to join our IT team, based at the Garibaldi School but required to work at Meden School when required. 

The trust and schools also recognize the importance of investing in their staff and the successful applicant will be supported with CPD time to work toward industry standard certifications that are applicable to the role (Microsoft, Computina, etc).  Enhancing their own credentials for future progression and increasing the quality of support provided to the staff and students.

You will share an understanding that all members of staff have a collective responsibility for engendering a culture of success and a belief that all students can achieve.

This is a great opportunity for you to join a forward-thinking school.  Opportunities are provided for you to develop and make a difference to the lives of young people.
