We are looking for a skilled musician to enthuse and inspire our early years to year 6 pupils, to enrich our curriculum and provide PPA and leadership release for teachers.

This would involve teaching music lessons for EYFS-Year 6 pupils for 3.5 days a week in our dedicated music room with a half day for planning and preparation.

There would also be potential for the successful candidate to run their own paid music clubs/ tuition after school and at lunchtimes, in addition to and separate from the school contract.

- Experience of teaching music to groups of children (Qualified Teacher Status is not essential)
- Enthusiasm, positivity and energy to inspire and motivate all learners
- The highest expectations of themselves and the children that they teach
- A strong commitment to the school values and inclusion
- Excellent organisational and communication skills
- High aspirations to develop their teaching skills
In return we can offer you:
- The opportunity to work with our Curriculum Leader to develop a Music scheme of work for all year groups that supports and is supported by our new curriculum
