Art & Design Teacher (Nursery–Grade 10)

The role

The successful candidate will deliver Art across the whole school (IB PYP & MYP) and Design (MYP), adapting their practice to meet the needs of students from early childhood through to secondary.

Art (Nursery–Grade 10)

• Art is taught to all students, one module per week, from Nursery through Grade 10

• The role has a strong Early Years and Primary focus, where a warm, nurturing approach and developmentally appropriate practice are essential

• The teacher will also confidently adapt approaches for upper primary and secondary students, ensuring progression in skills, creativity and conceptual understanding

Design & Makerspace (MYP)

• Design is taught for two modules per week within the IB Middle Years Programme, in multigrade classes

• The teacher will lead the makerspace as a creative hub, designing inquiry-based learning aligned with the IB Design cycle and supporting hands-on problem-solving, design thinking and prototyping across the school.

• While Design is not a standalone subject in the PYP, the teacher will collaborate with and support PYP Homeroom teachers in integrating design principles and makerspace activities into their units of inquiry

Wider contribution to school life

As a startup school, all staff contribute beyond their core teaching responsibilities. For this role, this includes:

• Contributing to school communications, including supporting photography, documenting learning, and providing content for internal and external communication channels

• Experience in photography, communications, marketing or social media is highly valued and will strengthen an application, but a willingness to learn and actively contribute is essential

• Encouraging interest in robotics, programming and creative technologies, including through extracurricular activities

• Remaining flexible to support other areas of the school as needs evolve and where skills allow

We are looking for someone who:

• Is adaptable, resilient and comfortable with change
