Teaching Secondary Art & Design
We are looking for excellent Art & Design teachers with experience working within the UK or similar education system. Art & Design is not a demand area so experience is essential if you want to work supply.
We think an Art & Design teacher should explore the knowledge, skills and understanding that Art & Design offers young people in the context of secondary education. An Art & Design teacher should be confident, dynamic, creative and committed to making Art & Design accessible for all. Expertise in areas such as ceramics, sculpture, printmaking, drawing, photography, mixed-media and digital media is essential. We believe Art & Design has a significant and developing place in education and needs inspirational teachers to take it forward.
If you are a Secondary Art & Design Teacher and you are working in or want to work in the London area please send us your CV or browse the jobs section for more information. Your CV is your only marketing tool. We find CV's with the following attributes are the most succesful at finding jobs.
- Your most recent Art & Design teaching experience should be at the top of your CV - if schools see you as inexperienced then they will not want to part with as much money for your services - so you get paid less!
- Your CV should be brief and to the point and designed to show your best points quickly. Two pages maximum please.
- For each job use bullet points to highlight at least 3 extra special aspects of your performance in the role e.g extra help you gave the Head of Department writing a scheme of work, or attending a course on 'improving performance in afro-caribbean boys'.
- Keep extra curricular activities to a minimum unless relevant to education or very, very impressive (Olympic swimming Bronze or above).
If your CV fits our criteria we will need to meet you and see the following documents:- PASSPORT, QUALIFICATIONS AND DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE.
