Job overview

Wolfreton School and Sixth Form College is a large and forward thinking school and is a part of  a newly formed Multi Academy Trust; The Consortium Academy Trust (TCAT).  We are an ambitious community and recognise the impact of exceptional staff on the development of our positive and engaged student body.  

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced and committed teacher to lead our very successful Art department.  The successful candidate will be a talented and creative teacher, equipped to play an important role in leading this high performing faculty.   The successful candidate will have the ability to communicate their subject knowledge and enthusiasm to the students they teach.  This role is responsible for leading the Art department and will work closely with the Area Improvement Leader for Creative and Performing Arts and the other members of the CPA Faculty.

In 2016 we moved into our new single site, purpose built school.  With state-of-the-art facilities and a real commitment to the values encapsulated in our strapline, ‘The Wolfreton Way – Excellence, Endeavour and Respect’, the school really is at an exciting stage of its development.

Wolfreton is a good and ambitious school.  This was recognised by Ofsted in our most recent inspection in October 2013, when the achievement of students, quality of teaching, behaviour and safety of students and leadership and management were all judged to be good.  Since then, we have seen continuing improvements across the school.  Staff are ambitious and students are too.  Students are keen to work with staff and take advantage of the many opportunities they are offered.  

Standards of attainment at Wolfreton exceed the national average.  In 2018, 86% of students gained a grade 4 in English and 80% did so in maths.  Students enjoy access to a broad and balanced curriculum, and specialist teaching ensures that engagement and progress can continue to increase for all.
