Subject Leader of Drama

3 weeks ago


Liverpool, United Kingdom Belvedere Academy Full time

The Subject Leader will also contribute to the outstanding enrichment programme on offer at Belvedere. The post holder runs large enrichment opportunities within our compulsory enrichment slot during the middle of the day as well as activities at the end of the day. In order to facilitate this, they currently do not have a form.

All pupils at Key Stage 3 study one hour of Drama each week. These lessons fit within a carefully sequenced curriculum journey and enable all pupils to build their knowledge of performance ensuring that all pupils have the opportunity to succeed. Belvedere has an inclusive approach to the teaching of creative arts prioritising involvement and enabling all our pupils to become effective practitioners.

The uptake at GCSE and A’ level is very good and the examination results are regularly amongst the best in the academy in terms of both progress and attainment.

A significant part of the Belvedere calendar is the annual Drama Festival which sees all pupils in Years 8 and 9 perform with their forms under the direction of Year 12 pupils. There is also a major biannual academy production in collaboration with the music department plus smaller performances throughout the year. We also run several theatre trips every year.

We are lucky enough to have a bespoke “Black Box” theatre space and a Dance Studio as well as a large hall.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the right person to have a real impact on our pupils’ experience of performance and theatre both in lessons and through enrichment. The post would suit an experienced teacher of drama or someone who is already leading a department.

Belvedere was the first independent school to become an academy and is continuing the traditions and standards of its predecessor school. We were judged outstanding in all areas by Ofsted in January 2015. We have high expectations of all our students and we support them with excellent pastoral care. Our extensive Enrichment programme allows students to develop into well rounded individuals.
