Engineering Trainee Teacher

From workshop to whiteboard.

Richmond upon Thames School is on the hunt for an Engineering enthusiast with the curiosity to teach and the know-how to inspire. Whether you’ve studied mechanical, civil, electrical or general engineering – or worked in the field – this is your chance to train as a teacher while earning a salary.

Engineering is more than a subject here – it’s a gateway to problem-solving, creativity, and careers that change the world. Through the Grad2Teach salaried training programme, you’ll go from trainee to fully qualified teacher (PGCE with QTS included), all within a supportive and forward-thinking school environment.

Here’s what’s on the table:

• A salaried placement in a London secondary school.

• Support and mentoring as you gradually build up your own timetable.

• Structured training based on national teaching standards.

• A PGCE with QTS delivered by Coventry University – no extra fees for tuition!

Bring your passion for design, systems thinking and practical skills, and help build the next generation of makers, engineers, and inventors.
