Serving the bustling city of Sheffield, Outwood Academy City was constructed in 2011 with state-of-the-art facilities and joined Outwood Grange Academies Trust three years later. The school has undergone a huge transformation for its 1200 students, with an innovative curriculum and a personalised approach to learning enabling them to realise their vocational, practical, creative and academic abilities. This was recognised by Ofsted in February 2019, when the academy was judged 'Good with Outstanding Leadership'. Inspectors noted that, "Leaders and teachers demonstrate high expectations for all pupils. They are determined that pupils achieve well in their subjects".
We believe this transformation is due to our knowledge-rich curriculum, designed to personalise learning for every student, and our exceptionally high standards, helping all students to reach their potential. We have won numerous awards as a school and are an IQM Centre of Excellence, which highlights that inclusion at all levels is of paramount importance to us. We are also proud to have been awarded the Gold Status by the Carnegie Centre of Excellence for Mental Health Award.
As we continue to improve, help to take us to the next level.
The Art department at Outwood Academy City is situated in the heart of the academy with two large sunny rooms plus a dedicated clay room with adjacent kiln and store. A short distance away, there is a separate Art 1-2-1 space which houses small group interventions. Art is very popular with students at City, and when they opt for the subject, they expect to do well. Art and photography results have been historically strong with Art students achieving significantly higher progress than other subjects. There are currently two Art teachers and a part-time technician/intervention tutor.This position arises due to the relocation of our long standing head of department. It is an excellent opportunity for both experienced heads of Art, or a talented, driven Art teacher who is interested in taking their first step into subject leadership.
