Teacher of Art

Due to the increase of pupil numbers studying Art at GCSE and A level, the Governing Body of St Paul’s School for Girls offer an opportunity to appoint a talented and inspiring Art Teacher to join our exciting and fast-growing art department. Art is taught in a nurturing environment using a wide range of disciplines which help to develop students as artists. Our students are passionate about art and regularly go on to study art at university level. We seek someone who will inspire our students to generate ideas that are personal and meaningful, be courageous in taking risks with confidence and become skilled and motivated in preparation for a lifelong appreciation of the arts, or potentially ready for a career in the creative industries.
