We are seeking to appoint a talented Music teacher who has excellent subject knowledge and a strong classroom presence. You will be passionate about Music, be ambitious for our students and will support our inclusive ethos. You will be well organised, energetic and willing to go the ‘extra mile’. The successful candidate will be joining a supportive and hardworking team which encourages all students, irrespective of their academic ability, to strive for excellence. This post would be ideal for a suitably qualified and ambitious Early Career Teacher, who will benefit from a full induction programme.
We strive to build on the uptake of Music at Key Stage 4 and 5. At Key Stage 3, all students have three, 60-minute lessons per fortnight, and there are well-planned and resourced schemes of work across all Key Stages. Performance opportunities and practical work are key features of our wider curriculum, with students able to participate in a range of musical ensembles, concerts, and off-site visits to support their learning. We also take part in the yearly drama performances and encourage all students to take participate. Candidates should expect to become fully involved in the life of the Music department; immersing themselves in extra-curricular activities including clubs, concerts and school shows, some of which are after school hours.
