Graduate Resident Assistant: Art

Sedbergh Prep School is situated in a spectacular rural location in the Lune Valley, an ideal place for living out the ethos of allowing children to be children. We strive to realise the potential in all of our pupils, from the classroom to the stage or to the sports pitch.

We are now seeking a full time GRA to lead the art teaching throughout the Prep School, on a fixed contract for the academic year 2020/2021.  

The school’s art and design building is a beautiful, light and inspirational work space. The successful candidate will enjoy the chance to shape our enthusiastic young artists and will enjoy the support of the SLT and a fabulous facility.

This post will be ideally suited to anyone considering art teaching as a career and who would like a year of experience in a supportive school, prior to beginning a PGCE or other teaching training. Equally, talented artists who wish to continue their own careers will be able to use our facilities to do so.

Free accommodation is provided within the boarding house with all meals provided during term time.
