We are seeking to appoint an excellent classroom practitioner who is an enthusiastic, innovative and engaging teacher of Art and Design specialisms to join a dynamic and expanding Academy. The Academy offers a wide programme of options at Key Stage 4 and 5. We are seeking to appoint a candidate that can offer Art at KS3 and 4 as well as the possibility of teaching at Post 16.

All students do Art at Key Stage 3 (Years 7 and 8) and are taught by specialist Art teachers. At Key Stage 4, Art and Design GCSE (OCR) is a very popular option subject with around 3 classes in each year at KS4. Art also offer an award for KS4 students as part of one of our new vocational pathways. The subject also offers A level Art and Design, (Fine Art – AQA) as well as a new Arts Award for Post 16 level 2 students as part of our new T Level foundation programme. The subject is well led by a very experienced Head of Subject and there is a wealth of expertise within the team with other Art teachers who are equally very experienced and specialist Art staff.

The Arts and Humanities Faculty has a large team of experienced, dynamic and forward-thinking teachers and middle leaders. We would welcome applications from teachers early in their careers through to experienced staff.

The faculty is at the forefront of change and the Head of Faculty is a member of the Senior Leadership Team. There are several members of the faculty team that hold Academy wide TLR's with Academy responsibilities including two Lead Practitioners, one for Teaching and Learning and one for Behaviour and the ECT Professional Mentor, Leadership Edge Pure Coaches, so there is a wealth of support to all colleagues within the team. The Academy has a large Sixth Form and this faculty contributes significantly to courses and numbers Post 16 so the successful candidate will have the opportunity to contribute to development of A Levels, Level 3 courses and possible vocational courses as well as the opportunity to shape the future of other Level 3 courses as we continue to expand our Sixth form. There are plenty of opportunities to experience teaching at Post 16 as well as contributing to Post 16 developments.

Our last Ofsted inspection was in 2021 and we were judged the Academy to be good in all categories and for overall effectiveness with some excellent feedback across all subjects and our Pastoral Care.

Joseph Leckie Academy is a vibrant, exciting and innovative mixed 11-18 Converter Academy with an overall positive progress score every year since 2017 and within the top 3 non-selective schools in Walsall every year since 2017. With our excellent results and being graded as "Good" across all areas by Ofsted (October 2021) and our continual desire and drive to continue moving forward, this is an exciting time for you to join our team. Since 2017, the Academy has remained as one of the top non-selective secondary school for progress in Walsall based on validated results and is one of the highest performing schools in the region for student progress.

Our last Ofsted inspection in we were judged the Academy to be good in all categories and for overall effectiveness with some excellent feedback across all subjects and our Pastoral Care as can be seen below in some of their comments:

"We pride ourselves on our high expectations of all learners. This creates a calm learning environment where teachers can teach and students can learn as was clearly supported by the feedback from Ofsted. We offer a highly supportive environment and are committed to ensuring outstanding teaching, behaviour, progress and achievement. Staff are proud to work in our Academy."

Ofsted further commented that: "Pupils are proud of their school. Their attendance and punctuality are good. Pupils are safe. The school is calm and purposeful, and disruption to learning is rare. Few pupils underachieve and most flourish. Pupils of all abilities are enthusiastic learners who enjoy their learning."

"We have an ambitious curriculum, mapped in detail and a curriculum that is broad and deep, including the two year Key Stage 3. Students study a wide range of subjects at Key Stage 4 and there are plans to develop this further to support their next stage in education or employment and training. Leaders know what knowledge students should be taught and have sequenced learning well so students learn content in the right order and teachers and support staff work very well to and go the extra mile to support and improve students learning. Mistakes are spotted and modified through frequent assessment of learning. Inspectors commented on the very effective use of support staff both faculty and SEND staff to support students learning, including developing literacy skills and our SEND students flourish. All students are well prepared to go on to higher education or employment and training."

We are an expanding Academy with numbers growing, now well over 1500 and continuing to be over- subscribed at Key stage 3 and in our large Sixth form and so this is an ideal opportunity and an exciting time for you to join our team as a permanent member as we continue to expand and grow and there will excellent opportunities for you and this role to grow and develop further.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious candidate to join our dynamic team at the forefront of change and to make a real difference to our drive to continue to raise standards of education in the Academy.
