  • Principal Job Pack
    The Leith School of Art 25 North Junction Street Edinburgh EH6 6HW Telephone: 0131 554 5761 Web: www.LeithSchoolofArt.co.uk Email: [email protected] Leith School of Art – appointment of Principal A welcome from the Chair of the Board of Directors Thank you for your interest in Leith School of Art and in our search for a new Principal. As you delve into the following pages I hope you will gain a sense of what makes Leith School of Art unique and this vacancy so special. Leith School of Art is held in great respect by artists far and wide and in genuine affection by all who are associated with it. Leith means a great deal in different ways to different people of course, but if two things stand out it is the excellence of the teaching and the sense of community and support that surrounds it. There are many who can describe the experience of studying at Leith as life-changing, whether as a springboard to an artistic career or privately as a way to find, or rediscover, fulfilment, self-connection and expression. Our means-tested Assisted Places and Community Classes open the door to many for whom the opportunity to learn about art and design would be beyond reach on cost grounds. With the forthcoming retirement of our current Principal, we are at a highly significant transition in the story of Leith School of Art, and this is a very exciting opportunity for an artist with a passion and vision for art education to play a leading role in shaping the next chapter.

    Review of private Further Education colleges and English Language Schools Leith School of Art 1 June 2016 The review process This review report follows the quality framework for the review arrangements for private further education colleges and English language Schools in Scotland, April 2012. The review normally lasts for three days. Over the three-day period, the review team: engage with learners; observe episodes of learning and teaching and provide feedback to each member of teaching staff or other learning facilitator on strengths and areas for further development; conduct interviews and undertake other activity required to determine the extent of concordance between documentary evidence and practice; evaluate evidence against the 11 reference quality indicators; and identify key strengths and areas for further development for the organisation. Education Scotland is an approved educational oversight body authorised by the Home Office to inspect private further education colleges and English language Schools in Scotland. Reviews are arranged under three high-level questions which Education Scotland is adopting for evaluative purposes: How well are learners progressing and achieving relevant, high quality outcomes? How effective are the organisation’s learning and teaching processes? How effective are the organisation’s leadership and quality culture? Education Scotland reviews are designed to: support and promote quality enhancement in organisations to provide the best possible experience for the learner; provide information to the Home Office, when required, on the quality of organisations and the learning experience they provide; provide an independent evaluation to assist organisations in informing prospective and current learners of the quality of the organisation’s and services; evaluate organisations against the Education Scotland quality framework, March 2012; and complement organisation-led internal review and self-evaluation.
