We are a creative, oversubscribed academy looking for a Music Teacher – one with a creative, innovative mind – to join us and teach classes across Reception, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the ongoing shaping of a school – one that does not come up often.

We are highly focused on innovation and research as a means to developing the most effective learning. The successful candidate will benefit from a comprehensive induction programme and lots of support and professional development opportunities.

In return for your hard work and commitment we promise to respect your work life balance; some of the methods we use to do this are:
