Teacher of Music - Part Time job summary

We are seeking an expert Teacher of Music, an individual who can build on the excellent work of the current postholder who is relocating to a different part of the UK. As the Teacher of Music, you will have the opportunity to lead and work with a talented team to inspire and motivate young people to discover and pursue their own passion for the subject. You will work closely with the Curriculum Lead for Drama in order to promote the Performing Arts across the school. If you are up for the challenge and have the skills and experience required to excel in this role, we would love to have you join our team.

The successful candidate will have a secure understanding of curriculum development and delivery in Music from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 5 and knowledge of exam specifications at KS4 and A Level. You will be adept at managing and motivating staff, providing them with the support and resources needed to deliver high-quality education. We are looking for a leader or teacher with excellent communication skills and a passion for promoting the value of music and the wider performing arts. You will be committed to creating an inclusive and supportive learning environment that enables students to thrive and achieve their full potential, both academically and creatively.

We value our co-curricular provision at The Misbourne and recognise the vital importance of music in providing students with regular opportunities to showcase their talents. You will play a key role in shaping the co-curricular provision where a range of activities are provided to develop the skills of our students across music and performing arts. Our superb annual school production involves a significant number of students from across the school community and is a highlight of the school calendar. Our other activities including bands, choirs and theory clubs are well attended and play an important role in shaping the culture of the school.

We would be delighted to invite prospective applicants to visit our school and experience firsthand what makes us a great place to work.

We are an 11-18 Academy in the picturesque village of Great Missenden in the heart of the Chilterns. We have nearly 1100 students on roll including a successful and growing Sixth Form. Our staff tell us they genuinely feel like part of a team; a team who are striving to help each student flourish both academically and personally.

• Dynamic and organised, with good attention to detail?

• Someone with good communication, interpersonal and IT skills?

We are an Academy that takes an evidence-informed approach to school improvement, only implementing what we feel will make the biggest difference to the lives and outcomes of our young people, being mindful of staff workload and well-being.

We can offer you:

• Students who are a pleasure to work with

We place a strong emphasis on three core values: learning, kindness, and excellence. We are seeking a candidate who shares these values and is eager to not only improve their own teaching practice but also contribute to our department's ongoing growth and success. We firmly believe that effective teaching goes hand in hand with building strong relationships with students, and our educators play a pivotal role in instilling a passion for mathematics in our students. If you are dedicated to promoting learning, kindness, and excellence in the classroom, and are excited about the prospect of inspiring students to embrace the world of mathematics, we encourage you to join our team as we continue to strengthen our department and develop our fantastic students.
