Our school also includes 4 classes in our severe and complex needs provision, the Brae. Our Art and Design spaces are beautifully designed to incorporate extensive natural light, access to outdoor space, and views across the Forth. This role is for a member of staff based in our mainstream provision, working within the Expressive Arts team. As we seek to meet pupil needs in a rapidly expanding school, we are particularly keen to hear from applicants with design/technical backgrounds, to support further flexibility within our curriculum. We are passionate about ongoing professional learning and value all that this can bring to our community. Our school vision is Rosehill: a place to learn, grow and thrive. Our school values are respect, kindness and responsibility. We expect all of our classrooms teachers to be able to:

  • Demonstrate the highest standards of learning, teaching and assessment
