Head of Art and Technology

As Head of Art & Technology, you'll lead the team with clarity and passion - ensuring students experience a creative curriculum that is ambitious, inclusive and brilliantly taught. You will:

• Lead, develop and inspire the Art & Technology team, driving strong outcomes and a culture of excellent teaching.
• Shape and refine the curriculum so it builds skill, confidence and creativity, and meets the needs of all learners.
• Coach and support colleagues through thoughtful line management, collaboration and day-to-day leadership.
• Use assessment and data intelligently to keep standards high and close gaps quickly.
• Contribute to wider Academy life - enrichment matters here, and creative subjects are a big part of what makes school memorable.
  
  You'll be someone who:
• Is a strong classroom practitioner with the presence to lead others and the humility to keep learning.
• Has a track record (or clear potential) to improve outcomes and build consistency across a team.
• Can combine high expectations with real relational warmth - you'll win hearts and move results.
• Brings a "let's make it happen" mindset, aligned to Oasis values of aspiration, achievement, care and resilience.
  
  Oasis Academy Hadley is looking for a bold, energetic leader to head up Art & Technology. Someone who can bring a team together, raise the bar on teaching and learning, and make the creative curriculum a genuine "heartbeat" of the school.
We're an all-through Academy (ages 2-19) with a strong sense of community, high expectations and a culture where staff are supported to grow and thrive. Why Hadley?
• All-through, family feel: many students stay with us right through to Sixth Form, so you get to shape culture and outcomes over time.
• We take development seriously. You'll have access to strong CPD, Trust-wide networking, and opportunities to progress - with a leadership culture that backs its people.
• A thriving Sixth Form: each year around 95% of students progress to university, with many going on to Russell Group / top third universities.
• A modern, purpose-built campus: a vibrant learning environment designed to support a broad curriculum and community life.
• Technology that supports learning: every student (and staff) are equipped to access enhanced learning through iPads.
• Easy to get to: the Academy is within a short walk of Ponders End station.
