We are looking for a Head of Art in a school that offers excellent opportunities for professional development. William Perkin Church of England High School (Ofsted ‘Outstanding’) is one of four Twyford Trust schools, a successful multi-academy Trust based in the Borough of Ealing. We offer comprehensive CPD, exciting development opportunities and good promotion prospects for our teachers. This role is fixed term for one year in the first instance (maternity cover).
We are looking for a Head of Art who is an enthusiastic artist and also a strong classroom practitioner with a commitment to achieving the highest standards both academically and in terms of engagement with Art. At KS3 we aim to provide our students with the necessary tools and skills so that when they progress into KS4/KS5 they are able to demonstrate their ideas creatively and independently. Students are taught the traditional techniques of drawing and painting, as well as gaining skills in textiles and ceramics. Students are given the opportunity to explore different media and each project focusses on a set of core content to prepare them for GCSE and beyond. Art history forms 50% of their grade for each assessment, and our students are able to appreciate and discuss artworks confidently having the knowledge and understanding of the context. They learn how meaning is communicated through art and how artists and craftspeople are able to express themselves through use of media. Students are also taught the importance of Art in the 21st century and how the Arts can lead to careers in creative as well as science based industries.
