London, United Kingdom Westminster School Full time

Job Introduction
The Drama department is seeking an enthusiastic, creative and collaborative Actor in Residence who will be an integral part of our team with a focus on promoting excellence in performance drama throughout the school. The post holder will be involved in all aspects of Drama at Westminster, and be prepared to be flexible and adaptable, according to the needs of the role and the department. The role will report directly to the Director of Drama.

Teamwork and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do in the Westminster School Drama Department. We encourage our highly able, independent minded pupils to mesh their own skills with their peers’ to create work that is greater than the sum of its parts. We are a thriving department, producing a wide range of work including full-scale musicals, site-specific plays, house plays, original translations, pupil-led productions and various festivals.

We have two exceptionally well-equipped performance spaces (the main 120-seat Millicent Fawcett Theatre, and a smaller, adaptable studio space downstairs). The Department has produced plays at professional theatres including St. James’ and The Old Red Lion, as well as further afield at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and in South Africa. Most recently, the department has developed a partnership with The Royal Court Theatre, where professional playwrights and directors collaborated with Westminster students to produce a collection of new plays which the students themselves performed at The Royal Court. Our students have also enjoyed considerable success in graduating to vocational drama schools both in the UK and abroad.

Main Responsibilities
**The post holder’s duties will involve, but will not necessarily be limited to**:

- Teaching performance drama to Fifth Form pupils (Year 9), as part of their academic timetable, and providing feedback to parents via the school’s reporting system
- Offering additional, specialised co-curricular activities e.g. Dance, Stage Combat, Playwriting, according to expertise
- Contributing to the day-to-day running of the department, including attending meetings and offering administrative support as appropriate

- Helping with the stage management for productions
- Taking responsibility for administrative tasks such as sourcing costumes and props
- Assisting with set design, posters, and digital promotion for plays
- Be responsible for directing specific scenes as advised by the drama teacher
- Delivering one-off workshops, seminars and/or talks on relevant topics in areas of specialism
- Supporting Academic Drama lessons

Please refer to the attached person specification for further details.

**Safeguarding and Child Protection**

Westminster School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.

About The School
**Working at Westminster**

Westminster School is a busy, purposeful and vibrant place to be and an excellent workplace. The community is made up of 750 pupils, 120 teaching staff and 108 support staff.

Westminster School is friendly and welcoming, and all newcomers quickly become part of the rhythm of life here.

There is a real sense of community here as, being a boarding school many members of staff and pupils live on site and the School’s premises are very much treated as a home away from home. School life starts before breakfast and continues way beyond the working day; as a result, there is always a lively atmosphere in and around School and always someone to share a tea and biscuit with in the Common Room. Support staff as much as teaching staff are encouraged to embrace the School’s day-to-day activities, whether that be attending an evening concert or a morning service in the Abbey.

Westminster School is for everyone, regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or any other protected characteristic. We hope you are encouraged to apply.

**The School**

Westminster School is a selective day and boarding school for boys aged 13 to 18 and girls aged 16 to 18. There are approximately 360 boys in the Lower School (Years 9 to 11) and 400 boys and girls in the Upper School (Years 12 and 13). One quarter of the pupils board, and the School is structured and run as a boarding school, with an extended day and week and a strong House-based system of pastoral welfare, for boarding and day pupils alike.

Westminster is an ancient school, whose origins can be traced to a charity school established by the Benedictine monks of Westminster Abbey. Its continuous existence is certain from the early 14th century. Henry VIII personally ensured the School’s survival by statute and Elizabeth I, who confirmed royal patronage in 1560, is celebrated as the School’
