A fantastic opportunity has become available for an enthusiastic and talented Teacher of Art & Design or Art ECT to join the flourishing Creative Arts Faculty at a highly regarded secondary school in North London renowned for its commitment to creativity, innovation, and student success.

This is a school where corridors become galleries, student work is showcased with pride, and creativity is woven into the fabric of everyday school life. From large-scale exhibitions and community projects to national competitions and collaborations with industry professionals, students are constantly encouraged to think beyond the classroom and develop their artistic identities.

The Art Department is one of the school's flagship faculties, boasting exceptional facilities including dedicated studios, specialist design spaces, digital media resources, ceramics equipment, and extensive exhibition areas. Student uptake at GCSE and A-Level continues to grow year-on-year, reflecting the department's popularity and success.
