An exciting opportunity to significantly impact on the lives of young people.

SIAMS: Outstanding (November 2015) Ofsted: Good (March 2019)

 The Priory CofE School in Dorking is seeking to appoint an inspiring and visionary Head of Art and Textiles.

Art is currently delivered to students in KS3 and at GCSE, with Textiles being delivered to KS3. This post would provide the successful candidate with scope to develop the provision through to A level Art, and also to develop a Fashion course both at KS4 and KS5 in due course.

The Priory School is at an exciting place in its development of the KS3 curriculum and is still committed to providing a broad and balanced education for its 700 students. Candidates with a clear passion and vision for the delivery of Art and Textiles would be ideally suited to join us at this pivotal point in our school’s development.

The Priory School is a successful and happy 11-19 Church of England Voluntary Aided school with an exceptionally positive school culture. We are rightly proud of our ‘outstanding’ SIAMS judgement and our recent ‘good’ Ofsted judgement.  We have an excellent CPD programme for all and in-house provision for recently qualified teachers. While this post would not usually be suited to an NQT, colleagues at any stage in their career with potential and talent are most welcome to apply. We are keen to recruit and develop the right person to develop and deliver a truly inspirational education to our students.

At The Priory School, our Christian distinctiveness is embodied in our core values of Wisdom, Dignity, Hope and Community and our mission is ‘Educating for Life in All its Fullness’. Our school is the embodiment of a Church school for the community, and not a faith school for the faithful.

If you wish to join a school that is destined for even greater things, working in an environment where your professional development and well-being are continuously supported, then we would welcome your application which should be submitted by no later than noon on Monday 30 March 2020. Interviews will take place on Thursday 4 April.

No agencies. The successful applicant will benefit from a £1000 welcome remuneration after completion of one term.

About The Priory CofE Voluntary Aided School

The Priory School is a Church of England Voluntary Aided school.

This means that the education that we provide offers more than academic rigour and excellence. Our rates of progress are outstanding; these are enhanced and extended by our school values which are at the heart of everything we do.

The combination of academic challenge and support, the breadth and range of our curriculum and the close links we have locally and with the wider world mean that we are ‘serving our community’ and ‘educating for life in all its fullness’ every day.

We firmly believe that our values of hope, wisdom, dignity and community are meaningful, desirable and relevant foundations on which all young people can start to build their adult lives.

Schools have been set up by the Church of England for more than two centuries with the intention of educating the children of the parish. At The Priory, the vast majority of our students come from local C of E primary schools such as St Paul’s, St Martin’s, St John’s, The Weald and Surrey Hills. In addition we warmly receive students from other Dorking schools such as Powell Corderoy, St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School and North Downs, clearly indicating that we are open and welcoming to students and families of other faiths and of no faith
