Artist in Residence, THE LADY ELEANOR HOLLES SCHOOL

Artist in Residence Part-Time, Fixed Term for 1 year LEH is seeking to appoint an engaging and committed Artist in Residence to join its dynamic Art Department. This is an exciting opportunity for a practising artist to contribute to a vibrant and ambitious creative environment, while continuing to develop their own artistic practice. The successful candidate will work across Key Stages 3, 4 and 5, working with motivated and highly capable students. The role would particularly suit an artist interested in gaining experience within a leading academic school and contributing meaningfully to both curricular and co-curricular provision. This is a fixed term project with the Art Department for 1 year (term-time only). What We Offer LEH is a thriving school situated on a 24-acre site southwest of London. It has a vibrant and diverse community, and LEH students are renowned for their academic prowess as well as their success across an extraordinarily wide range of co-curricular activities, including sport, music, and drama. We have state-of-the-art facilities, and we encourage staff to make the most of the school's swimming pool, tennis courts, free lunches, on-site parking, and library resources. A list of our attractive range of benefits can be found here. Safeguarding Statement All staff working in the School will have some contact with children and will therefore be in regulated activity. Staff with teaching duties will be responsible for the pupils that they teach and may also have additional specific pastoral or other responsibilities for other pupils they do not teach. In addition, all staff will regularly interact with pupils who may seek assistance or otherwise interact with them whilst moving around the School. In all cases, the post holder's responsibility for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of the pupils is to adhere to and ensure compliance with the School's safeguarding policies and procedures at all times. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children. Lady Eleanor Holles is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). #J-18808-Ljbffr Guardian Jobs
