Music Teacher job summary
St Margaret Ward Catholic Academy is a popular, oversubscribed and thriving school where music is highly regarded. We are looking to appoint an outstanding teacher of Music to join our highly successful department, led by a senior moderator for one of the principal examination boards. Through a passion for success and exceptionally high standards both in and outside the classroom we are seeking someone who can support and further develop the existing array of musical opportunity available to our students, including our Voicebox choir, jazz orchestra and Key Stage 3 and 4 ensembles. The suitable candidate will be expected to make a valued contribution to the department and to help shape its strategic development, including as Stoke on Trent’s lead school within the Music Partnership network. The ability to offer Music at A Level would be an advantage, but is not essential.
Applications from ECTs (for whom excellent support is available) are welcomed. Candidates considering part time employment are invited to apply, alongside those looking for a full-time position. For those seeking full-time employment, the ability to teach a second subject would be advantageous, particularly Religious Education and/or the humanities.
