Permanent Technician Roles - Newham Secondary Schools

School Technician Roles - Secondary Schools | Newham

Keep the school running, keep learning moving.

Not every school hero stands at the front of a classroom.

Some are setting up science experiments before first period. Some are helping students bring creative projects to life. Others are making sure equipment is ready, resources are organised, and every lesson has what it needs to succeed.

If you're practical, organised, and enjoy working in a busy school environment, we've got technician roles across secondary schools in Newham that could be right up your street.
