Salary £32,189 — £49,274 (Academy Qualified Teachers Scale)

Position Available: September 2024

Contract: Full Time, Permanent

Closing Date: Midday, Tuesday 7th 2024

We wish to appoint an exceptional Teacher of Art & Design to join our talented Creative Arts Faculty.

The post is open to teachers of all levels of experience, and we welcome applications from ECTs.

The successful candidate will have an enthusiasm that will inspire students to outstanding outcomes.

Our academy operates across two sites. The Lower Academy specialises in the teaching of our Key Stage 3 students, whilst The Upper Academy specialises in teaching Key Stage 4 and 5. This post will initially be based at the academy that best suits the skills of the appointed candidate and the needs of the students. Due to the popularity of Creative subjects within our sixth form provision, the ability to offer KS5 3D Design would be advantageous, but not essential. 

We pride ourselves on being a truly inclusive academy and this is actively underpinned by our motto ‘Aspire, Believe, Achieve’.

We are looking for colleagues who share the drive and passion necessary to ensure every student achieves their potential.

The Academies provide staff with the most appropriate and effective support to ensure that their professional development needs are fully met and that there is a high level of challenge in the opportunities they are offered.  We have a weekly CPD programme for all and a very strong record of developing staff.  We have an excellent track record of providing promotion and responsibility opportunities to staff that aspire to leadership.

Staff, including those new to teaching, feel valued. Leaders have shown consideration for staff well-being. Ofsted 2019

The Basildon Academies are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be subject to DBS and health checks.

We reserve the right to close this advertisement early if we receive a high volume of suitable applications or are able to fill the position faster than originally anticipated.
