What skills and experience we're looking for
Are you passionate about unlocking the hidden potential in every student through the transformative power of the performing arts?
We are seeking a dynamic and inspiring Performing Arts Teacher who can ignite creativity, build confidence, and encourage young people to express themselves fully. If you believe in nurturing talent and helping young people discover their unique voices, this is the perfect opportunity to make a lasting impact in an environment where artistic expression is celebrated and personal growth is paramount.
You need to be a talented and dedicated Performing Arts Teacher, with the ability to inspire pupils and help them find their own voices through creative expression. As part of our school's commitment to fostering individual growth, this role requires someone who can nurture confidence, encourage participation, and support pupils in developing their performance skills across a range of disciplines.
With a focus on creating a positive and inclusive learning environment, you'll work with pupils from a variety of backgrounds, helping them to engage with the arts in a meaningful way.
In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to design and deliver lessons that not only develop technical ability but also encourage pupils to challenge themselves and step out of their comfort zone. You will be working in a supportive and collaborative environment, with access to the resources and professional development needed to further your own practice. If you are passionate about using the arts as a tool for personal development and want to contribute to the holistic education of young people, we would love to hear from you.

This is an excellent time to join James Brindley as the Academy continues to implement a strategic vision developed by young people, staff, and other stakeholders. Join us to ‘Think Differently’ to inspire young people to overcome all barriers and achieve their dreams.
James Brindley is a stand-alone Academy based in a wide variety of locations across the City of Birmingham. During a school year, we educate over 3,000 young people for periods ranging from a few days in hospital to several years in one of our teaching centres. Many of our young people have complex medical needs and many have been out of education for a significant period prior to joining us. We offer a full-time curriculum to young people from EYFS to KS5 and our aim is always to enable them to ‘close the gap’ and to exceed expected progress during the time they are with us.
