The Governors wish to appoint an excellent Teacher of Art to work in our very happy, successful and supportive school. This post should appeal to both recently qualified teachers or to more experienced candidates, looking to develop further in an outstanding school. This is a wonderful opportunity for someone wishing to join an outstanding department and a highly successful and forward thinking school. We simply want the best candidate, therefore, we would strongly encourage teachers at all levels of experience to consider this post.

St Mary's is a great place to work and provides excellent job satisfaction, as it is a very supportive environment. We provide excellent CPD for ECTs and recently qualified teachers, as well as on-going training for more experienced teachers. There are opportunities for teachers at all levels to help develop teaching and learning across the school, working collaboratively with teachers from other departments, whether as coaches or researchers. The working environment is, therefore, a very stimulating one for all staff and is an added attraction of this post.

St Mary's is a very popular school, rated Outstanding by the Diocese and Ofsted. We enjoy outstanding facilities in a building, which opened in 2011. We joined the Bishop Bewick Catholic Education Trust in June 2020. We are also very popular with parents and are one of the most over-subscribed schools in the North-East. The roll has grown from around 1100 five years ago to almost 1440 by September 2023, with 5 main school year groups of around 235 and a Sixth Form of approximately 270 students. We expect the Sixth Form to continue to grow in the next couple of years, as strongly academic year groups continue to move into the Sixth Form.

At St Mary's, Art is a well-established and highly respected department with excellent results. Recent highlights include:-

GCSE

Art GCSE averaging over 90% Grade 4+ across the last 4 examined years.71% of Art GCSE grades were 5+ in 2023, with 31% Grade 7+.

A Level

75% of A Level Art & Design entries in 2023 were graded at A*-B100% A*-C rate in A Level Art & Design over the last 4 years Leadership, teaching and the climate for learning in Art are all outstanding, as they are across the whole school. Above all, the Governors wish to appoint a leader with:- A clear commitment to nurturing and promoting the school's distinctive ethosA passion for providing the best possible holistic education for all studentsA commitment to maximising achievement through excellence in teaching and learningAn excellent track record as a classroom teacherThe ability to promote a love of learning Art in our students Application packs are available to download from our school website, or by e-mailing the Director of Finance and Support Services, If you would like to discuss this post further or if you would like to visit our school, please do not hesitate to get in touch with Danielle Largue, Deputy Headteacher on

The school is fully committed to safeguarding and the welfare of children and young people. This post is subject to an enhanced DBS check and an online search for shortlisted candidates, as part of our due diligence.
