Full Job Description

Job Title: Teacher of Art (Graphics / Photography)

Working Hours: Approx. 5 hours of teaching per week.

Reporting to: Head > Head of Art

We are looking for a part-time teacher to join our thriving Art Department. With purpose built Art studios, photographic screen printing facilities, a professional standard photography studio, full Adobe digital editing suite and a large kiln, the Art Department is extremely well equipped. This allows students to experiment with a broad range of media and find their personal strengths; we are proud of the fact there is no house style. The Art subjects are very popular with our cohort who gain from Fine Art and Textiles at Key Stage 3 and 4, with Photography and Graphic Communication becoming additional options for students at Key Stage 5. We invite applications from experienced teachers with a passion for this subject; able to inspire students with a zeal for learning to carry on the outstanding work of the department. Confident digital skills are essential and a specialism in Graphics or Photography would be of particular benefit to the Department to support our A Level teaching. The
teaching load will be around 5 hours per week.

All applicants must complete the school's official application form, available via this link to our website https://queenmargarets.com/careers, providing a full career history and names and contact details for two referees. Completed application forms should be returned to: recruitment@queenmargarets.com.

Queen Margaret's is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young persons and candidates must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure & Barring Service and will be asked to bring certain documents to interview to confirm their identity.

Candidates should be aware that, in compliance with statutory guidance, as part of the shortlisting process the school will consider carrying out an online search as part of their due diligence on the shortlisted candidates. This may help identify any incidents or issues that have happened, and are publicly available online, which the school might want to explore with the applicant at interview.
