Job Description

We are seeking a dedicated and passionate Art Teacher to join an inspiring SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) school located in South-West London, starting this September.

About the School:

This well-resourced school features a purpose-built classroom hub, an adventure playground, and offers students weekly music sessions alongside access to a wide-ranging therapy service. Primary, Secondary and Post-16 learners follow a diverse curriculum, which includes vocational subjects such as motor vehicle studies, horticulture, hospitality, and construction.

The school is committed to supporting pupils with SEMH needs who require a more personalised and therapeutic approach than mainstream schools typically provide. Each student follows an individualised, themed curriculum that is closely tied to their education, health, and care plans.

The Role:

  • A qualified Art specialist from a mainstream background with a passion for inclusive education, or
  • A teacher experienced in special education who is confident teaching Art to GCSE level.
  • Class sizes are small (up to 8 pupils), and every class is supported by a dedicated Learning Support Professional. All pupils are expected to achieve a GCSE qualification in Art.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have:

  • Experience working with students with SEN
  • A background in secondary or further education
  • QTS, NQT status, or QTLS
  • A genuine enthusiasm for supporting young people with additional needs
  • Strong communication and organisation skills
  • The ability to engage students and promote effective teaching and learning
  • Newly qualified teachers are welcome to apply, and the school offers a supportive environment for professional growth

Interviews will be held ASAP.
