What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking for a candidate to make a significant contribution to the life of Stratford upon Avon School and the wider community. We would like an outstanding practitioner to teach Music in an innovative, exciting and dynamic Performing Arts Faculty. For a town synonymous with the performing arts and Shakespeare, this is a wonderful opportunity.
What the school offers its staff
A great opportunity to teach Music in Shakespeare’s town. We:
- have had a very positive inspection by Ofsted under the new framework
- have recently completed development of our site due to our increasing popularity and increased admissions applications. This has further enhanced our already excellent working environment/facilities and provides additional opportunities for your future development. As part of the development, we have had a new Performing Arts block including a new state of the art music room and practice rooms.
- are a genuinely inclusive school. People matter; everybody matters. We live and breathe by our values
- have strong leadership at all levels. This is a deliberate way of working and the school ‘is well led by many’
- have a really strong pastoral system and structures, resulting in high levels of behaviour and buy-in from our students and parents
- have a talented, supportive staff who share and uphold the school’s values. They are committed to improving the school further and creating the best possible experiences for our students
- are part of a very special local community. Stratford upon Avon is a wonderful place to work.

We are a lovely school with a genuine ‘feel good factor’ throughout. Our mission is summed up by 3 words, Engage, Enthuse & Inspire, which underpin what we’re all about.
“To thine own self be true”’. We hope you are particularly excited at the prospect of joining us. If you think, you have what it takes, then please submit a completed application form by the closing date.
