For more senior school technician positions, you may be responsible for the sourcing of resources, budget allocation, staff training and the design of risk assessments.
The qualification requirements for a school technician will depend on the subject you are supporting, whether that be science, DT, IT, art, reprographies, or food.
While most school technician positions are not required to have a degree, having one in a technical subject – such as chemistry or material science – could greatly improve your prospects.
