Visual Arts Teacher

Calling all creatives, colour-lovers and canvas whisperers!

Are you the type of person who sees art in everything – from sunsets and sneakers to spilt coffee?

Do you believe every child has an inner artist just waiting to break free?

If you just nodded enthusiastically (maybe even while holding a paintbrush), keep reading – because we want you!

An independent, forward-thinking school nestled in beautiful Ballito is on the lookout for a Visual Arts Teacher who can inspire, guide, and sprinkle a bit of artistic magic across every lesson.

What You’ll Bring to the Easel:

• A B.Ed degree majoring in Visual Arts (FET Phase) OR
• A Fine Arts degree + PGCE
• A flair for all things creative – from sketching and sculpting to digital design
• A teaching style that’s bold, dynamic and a little out-of-the-box
• The ability to turn a blank page into a masterpiece (and help learners do the same)
• Patience, passion, and the power to inspire growing minds
• Bonus points if you’re the go-to person for art exhibitions, school mural projects or know how to make glitter behave
• Experience in the IEB Curriculum

Your Days Will Include:

• Teaching Visual Arts to learners (who might just be future Picassos)
• Planning lessons that are imaginative, fun and curriculum-aligned
• Encouraging experimentation, expression, and confidence through art
• Organising school exhibitions and celebrating creativity at every level
• Turning your classroom into a vibrant creative space where learners thrive

Why You'll Love It Here:

• A supportive, energetic school community that values the arts
• A chance to live and teach in Ballito – where the sea breeze is real and the sunsets actually look like paintings
• Freedom to bring your unique teaching style to life
• Learners who are excited to create, explore and think differently
