Are you a passionate musician and educator ready to hit the right note with the next generation of performers, composers, and producers?
We are seeking an inspiring Music Teacher to join a creative and energetic Performing Arts department in Middlesbrough. This school is committed to ensuring that music is at the heart of its culture, providing students with a platform to express themselves, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love for the arts. Whether your background is classical, contemporary, or digital, we want a specialist who can orchestrate excellence in the classroom.

The Role
As a Music Teacher, you will lead a variety of practical and theoretical sessions across KS3 and KS4. You will join a department that balances traditional musicianship with modern technology, with the potential to lead BTEC Tech Award in Music Practice or GCSE Music for the right candidate.
Key Responsibilities:
* Performance Coaching: Guiding students in developing their instrumental and vocal skills, both as soloists and in ensembles.
* Composition & Theory: Teaching the building blocks of music, from notation and harmony to song-writing and film scoring.
* Music Technology: Utilizing industry-standard software (such as Logic Pro, Sibelius, or GarageBand) to engage students in digital production.
* Extra-Curricular Leadership: Running school choirs, bands, or orchestra rehearsals and coordinating seasonal concerts and community performances.
* Curriculum Innovation: Delivering a diverse curriculum that explores global music styles, history, and the modern music industry.
Why Join This School?
* Teesside’s Creative Spirit: Work in Middlesbrough, a town with a resilient community and a growing scene for local arts and culture.
* Excellent Facilities: Benefit from dedicated practice rooms, a recording studio, and a well-equipped Mac suite for music technology.
* Collaborative Faculty: Join a "Performing Arts Hub" where Music, Drama, and Dance work together on large-scale productions and showcases.
* Career Growth: Access to bespoke CPD, including links with local music hubs and opportunities for TLR (Teaching and Learning Responsibility) roles.
About You
We are looking for a practitioner who is as comfortable conducting an ensemble as they are troubleshooting a MIDI keyboard.
The Ideal Candidate:
* Holds QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) and a relevant degree in Music or Music Production.
* Is a skilled multi-instrumentalist or vocalist with a strong command of music theory.
* Has experience delivering high-impact lessons for AQA, Edexcel, or BTEC specifications.
