The Role:

Deliver teaching across KS3 and KS4 including two Year 10 and two Year 11 GCSE groups (maximum of 20 students)

Lead curriculum planning, assessment strategies, and maintain high standards of teaching and learning

Make effective use of technician support and maintain positive student relationships

Support the transition to our new permanent Head of Department from Easter 2026

What We Offer:

Two large, specialist Art rooms
