Applications are invited for the post of Head of Art from September 2025. This is an excellent opportunity to assume the leadership of a strong and talented department. The successful candidate will shape the department’s culture and promote the value of Art in the school community, continuing to develop the scope and emphasis of our Art provision.
The Art Department at Yarm School has a vibrant and valuable place in the life of the school: its energetic and creative approach motivates pupils of all ages and abilities. The department is housed in the top floor of the beautiful Grade II Listed Friarage Building. There are two large classrooms, the technician’s room with storage and an office, plus a converted Attic that is only used by the A Level Art Students. The Attic Studio has been divided up so that each student has their own working space. Life in the Art Department is busy and rewarding. Staff and pupils engage extremely positively in what is a happy, structured and creative environment. We strive to ensure that the department is a stimulating and caring place where each child is encouraged to develop and reach their creative potential. The work produced by A Level students in particular is often large and ambitious.
Applications should be e-mailed to the Headmaster, Dr Huw Williams, as soon as possible and no later than 12 noon on Thursday 23rd January.
The school reserves the right to interview before the closing date if appropriate to the context of the field. Early applications are therefore very much encouraged.
