Description

Young V&A opened as a new museum of design and creativity for children and young people in Bethnal Green, East London, on 1 July 2023.

Drawing on our internationally renowned collections of art, design and performance, Young V&A aims to be the UK's premier national museum developed with, and for, young people - a place where you can learn, create, and debate together, and design for tomorrow.

We aim to
inspire children and young people to be active citizens and creative change-makers in their communities; to
empower educators to drive forward creative education in art, design, and performance from early years to secondary school; to
connect young people with the creative ingenuity of designers, entrepreneurs, innovators and inventors, and each other, and to
influence the sector through child-centred museum practice.

The Creative Learning Facilitator is an energetic and audience-focussed learning practitioner with a passion for child-centred, playful and innovative creative education.

The Creative Learning Facilitator will contribute to the planning, development, delivery and evaluation of learning activity.

The main responsibility will be preparation for and delivery of workshops, events and projects, supporting diverse children and young people aged 0-14 years to access inclusive, compelling and relevant learning experiences, and empowering them to develop creative skills and confidence, inspired by the new museum's collection and themes.

The Creative Learning Facilitator will have experience of creative education drawn from art, design or performance.

They will work across formal and informal settings, delivering school workshops and assemblies, holiday activities for children and sessions for families and early years.

Delivery will take place in Young V&A's permanent galleries and in our new Clore Learning Centre. Creative Learning Facilitators also support occasional outreach.

The post-holder will be reflective and resilient, contributing to a small dynamic and flexible learning team at YV&A. The Creative Learning Facilitator will support relationships across the V&A, with creative professionals and with local partners.
