Job overview
Full Time Art Teacher required from September 2018
Salary main scale plus fringe and SEN1 allowance (NQTs considered)
We are a secondary special school for pupils who have learning and additional needs. Many of our pupils are also on the Autistic spectrum. We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and motivated teacher of Art who will join a dynamic, dedicated and energetic team of teachers from September 2018. This is an exciting opportunity for an exceptional experienced or newly qualified classroom teacher to make a significant contribution to the school. We are looking for a colleague who will embrace our drive to ensure that Art is a fundamental part of our school curriculum and has students' progress at the forefront of their teaching.
Some of our pupils, although of secondary age, are working at KS1 and 2 levels and therefore this role would suit both primary and secondary qualified teachers. The ability to teach art up to a GCSE level would be advantageous as would a knowledge of the Art Entry level award. The post holder would also be required to undertake the role of form tutor and teach a small amount of other curriculum subjects.
Visits to our school by potential applicants are essential.
We were graded Outstanding by OFSTED in 2009, 2012 and 2016.
Closing date for applications noon 7th February 2018. Interviews on 6th March 2018. Please see our website for the application form and job description.
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. Enhanced DBS, Children’s Barred List and Right to work in the UK checks are required for this post.
