visual arts teachertoart teacher secondary school
A visual arts teacher already meets 53% of what the art teacher secondary school role asks for. The move turns on 12 required skills not yet in the profile.
53%
54.4/ 100
1 Share of the art teacher secondary school role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the visual arts teacher profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.
Why this move works
A art teacher secondary school role treats 16 of its required skills as things a visual arts teacher already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- adapt teaching to student's capabilities
- apply teaching strategies
- assess students
- assist students in their learning
- curriculum objectives
- define creative components
What stands in the way is 12 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 28 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A art teacher secondary school role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a visual arts teacher background worth leading with.
- already held supervise craft production handling and moving
- already held teach arts principles communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held monitor art scene developments information skills
- already held use artistic materials for drawing communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held use painting techniques communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held define creative components communication, collaboration and creativity
All 28 carried skills, including the 16 the art teacher secondary school role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 28 missing skills fall into 10 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a art teacher secondary school role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 assign homework skill · sector specific
- 02 post-secondary school procedures knowledge · sector specific
- 03 apply intercultural teaching strategies skill · cross sector
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
