Teacher of Art

We are looking for a positive, creative and emotionally intelligent Art teacher to join us in our Faculty of Art for a temporary maternity contract for the academic year 2018-2019. Based on predicted student enrolments the post will be for a 0.454 fte.

We offer A-Level Art with EDUQAS and also provide students with an internal progression opportunity via the Art Foundation. If successful, you will be joining a faculty, which is supportive, collaborative and high performing. Leaders and teachers are truly passionate about supporting students but also work with a sense of humour. We also offer A-Level Photography. The two teams often collaborate with ‘lessons swaps’, trips and access to guest speakers. 

Students in Art consistently gain grades that are above national benchmarks within the already high performing sixth form college sector. Art is well-resourced in terms of space, equipment and technician support. Our students are passionate about Art and often go on to continue their studies in the creative arts with us via the aforementioned Art Foundation course or at undergraduate level at various universities. 

The college is a reflective workplace where colleagues are trusted to make the key decisions for themselves. We promote a blame-free culture where mistakes are celebrated as a tool for progress towards our goal of outstanding.

This is an exciting time to be joining our Specialist Sixth Form College as we develop partnership links across the education sector

If you are positive, creative and emotionally intelligent, if you want to gain experience working in a progressive and supportive educational environment and if you would like to take advantage of our darkroom, photographic and art studios in your teaching, please apply.

If you wish to discuss this post informally please contact Chris Timothy, Director of Arts via email (cjt@kinged6nun.a.cuk) to arrange a mutually convenient telephone conversation.
