Art Technician job summary

We are seeking an exceptional candidate, who is keen to play an important part in supporting our Art department to maintain the highest standards which ultimately leads to excellent outcomes for our students.

The central aim of Arts education at the Latymer School is to offer our students a broad range of experiences and opportunities, irrespective of ability.Involvement in the Arts can extend and deepen the capacity to learn about oneself through individual expression. Students develop perceptiveness and gain an insight into every aspect of life and the world around them by considering topics as broad as nature, politics, and history in relation to art. As a department we seek to encourage creativity by encouraging students to respond imaginatively to tasks that do not have a defined ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answer.

As a selective state grammar school, our students achieve impressive outcomes placing us as one of the top state schools in the country for academic achievement. Our students progress onto a range of competitive destinations, including a high number of students achieving places at Oxbridge or on medical related courses.

However, we are not solely focused on academic achievement; we are also committed to offering rich opportunities for personal development, including those that help to build confident and considerate young people. Our school motto translates as ‘Who endeavours wins’, reflecting our values of hard work, dedication, and resilience. The successful candidate will understand how well-resourced creative spaces, exhibitions, and extracurricular art activities can contribute positively to students’ personal development and support their wider success in school.

A further detailed job description and person specification is attached in the candidate pack.
