What skills and experience we're looking for
The Directors of Blackdown Education Partnership are seeking to appoint a Teacher of Art to join our school from September 2026. This vacancy would be particularly suitable for an ECT, but RQTs and more experienced teachers are also welcome to apply.
Uffculme is a flourishing, popular, high performing School located on the beautiful Devon/Somerset border with easy motorway access to the regional centres of Taunton and Exeter. We are fully comprehensive and committed to inclusion.
Within this context, the Art team is a strong department with a track record of excellent achievement and levels of take up at KS4, which we are keen to maintain for the future.
What the school offers its staff
Whilst our examination results speak for themselves, they don’t tell the whole story. They are based on a culture of high expectations; exceptional levels of student participation and active involvement in the life of the school; and great relationships between staff and students. We make no apologies for wanting it all as a school: happy staff, happy students, outstanding results, amazing opportunities, and a culture which rewards and values success in all its forms.
The successful candidate will be, or have the potential to be, an outstanding teacher who inspires a love of languages in your students and who is able to deliver the exceptional results which we have come to expect from our students. A full contribution to our extensive extra-curricular programme will be expected. In return we can offer you support from an excellent team of colleagues where morale is high; fantastic facilities and young people who genuinely want to learn.
