Our client is looking to appoint an enthusiastic Art Teacher to join a successful school in Norwich. This is an excellent opportunity for a creative and motivated teacher who believes in the value of Art and Design as a subject that develops imagination, confidence, technical ability and independent thinking.

The successful applicant will deliver engaging lessons that introduce students to a variety of artistic techniques, materials, processes and visual styles. You will encourage pupils to experiment with different approaches, analyse the work of established artists and develop their own ideas through drawing, painting, mixed media and other appropriate forms of artistic expression.

Through regular assessment and constructive feedback, you will help students reflect on their progress, refine their work and produce outcomes that demonstrate creativity and technical development.
