[Design and Technology] query

Mon Jul 30 02:46:49 EDT 2018

Hi Dean, we are lucky that we have a Design Technician for 3 days a week to prepare materials, work with students in class, help order materials and look after machinery  and complete safety audits, etc. He is attached to the senior campus 9-12. He will also assist the Arts technician when we have displays or exhibitions. He is new ( 3years) before that I have I person 1 day to machine material and 1 person 1 day tool sharpening and general work. Before that I did it all and did have an time allowance built in to my load. I have worked in schools were you did it all.
Like Dean he make an enormous difference, the support he gives us teachers is brilliant, it allows to better teach and not have to works back to get material ready.
Thanks Rob

Hi Stuart,

We have a technician who predominately works in the Technology department with ordering equipment, resources and materials and supporting VCE classes year 11-12. The other part of the job description is supporting arts department, generally 1 -2 period per day.

We wouldn’t function as we do without the technician

Dean.

Hi Stuart –

We’re about 650 in the secondary school component at HT, thought there’s a primary which also uses the space.  I teach alone (I’m the only DT teacher.

I don’t have time release, though there is an Art assistant.  However, it’s often more complex to coordinate cross-department than to just do the job that needs doing.

At a previous school appointment, I used to attract a 75 minute allowance as Head of Department, but that school had 1200 students and 3 members in the department, as well as a technician 2 days a week.

Hope this info can contribute to the conversation.

Hi all,
Was just looking for some feedback regarding positions of responsibility and time release at other schools. Does anyone have any time release for preparation of materials etc. for schools of around 900 students? Or an assistant that they employ or share with other departments.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Stuart
