Job overview
HEAD OF DESIGN
REQUIRED FOR SEPTEMBER 2018
Talbot Heath School is looking to recruit a creative, dynamic and innovative Head of Design to lead the next exciting phase of development at Talbot Heath.
The school was founded over 130 years ago with the aim of being liberal, progressive and pioneering; those aims continue in the School’s vision for the future. To support this, the school has designed an innovative STEAM Hub, an interdisciplinary learning space that will incorporate the latest technologies to support learning; augmented reality, holographic screens, laser and 3D printing will be available to students from KS1 to KS5. The spaces will be flexible, and are designed to allow ambitious and innovative cross curricular working.
The successful candidate will lead and oversee the design aspects of our inter-disciplinary curriculum, from Key stage 1 through to Key Stage 5, working closely with other faculty and inter-disciplinary leaders to create stimulating and challenging curriculum activities that span disciplines. There are already numerous interdisciplinary curriculum strands embedded across the school and we are already in collaboration with local universities and the wider community in order to realise our vision.
Talbot Heath is an independent girls’ school for ages 3-18 set in pleasant grounds in Bournemouth, with an outstanding academic record. As an employee you will enjoy the benefits of working in a peaceful woodland setting, yet only a short distance from the busy town centre, free on site parking, reduced membership to local health club plus other staff benefits.

About Talbot Heath School
Exam results count, but just as important are resilience, self-esteem, character, those life skills that are acquired as a result of a nurturing environment and an holistic approach to education.
It is during their formative years that young people develop the attitudes and values that they will hold for the rest of their lives. It is essential that they feel supported and nurtured in their learning environment.
At Talbot Heath the pupils flourish, not only academically but in every area, be it music, sport or the performing arts. Small classes, individual attention and the ability to tailor the provision to the needs of each student, ensure that pupils achieve their very best.
As the only Independent Girls’ School within the Bournemouth and wider Dorset area, Talbot Heath is unique. We are proud of our distinctive character and believe that we have stayed true to Mary Broad’s vision of first class education for girls with a modern twist.
