This is an exciting opportunity to lead our Art, Design & Technology faculty. We seek a candidate who has a passion that education can Transform Lives through Learning and understands the role art, photography, design & technology and food can have in inspiring this change.
We are looking to welcome a colleague to join our Art, Design and Technology Faculty, who has a strong ambition that our school can serve every child in the community and a belief that we learn every day from experiences and our colleagues.
This is an exciting time to join our school. Theale Green School is the fastest growing secondary school in West Berkshire, having grown from 500 to 850 students over the last three years. Our community recognises the significant improvements that have been made, and has supported the school in this period. The next phase of growth for the school will build on all the changes that have been embedded in this time; every aspect of school life has improved and we are determined that pathway will continue to strengthen.
2025-26 will see the school continue to be unwavering in our pursuit of excellence for the young people in our community. We continue to focus on the three pillars of our school development plan of Quality of Education, Equity for All, and Well School. Having a healthy safeguarding culture permeating throughout our community is the most important component that supports all other aspects of school life.
Theale Green School is part of the Activate Learning Education Trust consisting of six secondary schools. Our purpose is to be “School of Choice for the Community”, which we have continually proved over the last four years with significant growth in student numbers, and improved outcomes.
