Job overview
Tes is supporting the appointment of a Teacher of Art History to join a School based in Westminster.
The role
The School is looking for a well-qualified subject specialist to join their art history department from September 2025 to December 2025.
The successful candidate will deliver engaging art history lessons that inspires a longstanding love and appreciation of art and architecture in their students. They will be expected to teach or co-teach across areas of visual analysis such as architecture and sculpture, as well as periods in art history (e.g. the renaissance and modernism).
In addition to their academic teaching, the successful candidate will also be expected to contribute to the pastoral and co-curricular life of the School.

The History of Art department
Drawing on their academic specialisms and breadth of learning, the department aims to encourage an enthusiasm for art and architecture that extends far beyond the classroom. Pupils learn how to respond critically to the uses of images they encounter, not only in galleries, but also in the world around them to find significant links between different cultures and periods of history. They encourage ambitious wider-reading, gallery visits and believe in the importance of developing a personal, creative and critical voice.
Interviews will take place in-person later the same week.
