Further Information
If you are a leader looking for a model of schooling that dares to break the mould, and genuinely connects the creative arts to the whole curriculum, then this might just be for you.

We are looking for great people who want to become even better to join our school.

XP Gateshead is a new mainstream 11-16 Secondary School that opened in August 2021. We are a deliberately sized school with each year having 50 students, we currently have 200 students in years 7, 8, 9 and 10. We are now looking to recruit a Faculty Leader of the ARTS which incorporates disciplines of Art, Photography, Media, DT, Creative Computing and Music.

We are particularly interested in leaders with teaching expertise in Art & Design, Photography and Media. Additional skills in Design Technology would be welcome too.

At XPG, School Faculty Leads work closely with Trust Subject Leads and their role is essentially about “implementation and impact” of our expeditionary curriculum model.

This role is based at our school in Gateshead however there is an expectation that colleagues will travel to XP Doncaster for continued professional development from time to time as necessary. There is an extensive induction process when joining our Trust.

XP Gateshead is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and the successful applicant will be required to undertake an enhanced check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
