About the job

New Hall School requires:

Visiting Music Teacher – Oboe (and Bassoon)

The School is seeking a skilful and experienced musician to be part of our dynamic Music Department.  The successful applicant will hold a minimum of Grade 8 in Oboe, and ideally Grade 8 in Bassoon, and be experienced in Oboe reed adjustments. 

Visiting Music Teachers (VMTs) at New Hall School are responsible for administering their own timetable, including sourcing of resources and repertoire.  They are supported by members of the Music Department and provided with access to school systems to timetable and register their students.  VMTs set their own teaching rate and invoice parents directly.  A nominal charge is payable to the School in exchange for the promotion of their services and use of the School’s facilities.  VMTs are expected to report on student progress to parents/guardians.  Opportunities to support or lead an ensemble or musical activity may be available; this is remunerated separately.

New Hall offers an exceptional working environment, in a stunning Grade I listed building that was the former Tudor palace of Beaulieu. The School owns 140 acres of beautiful country parkland and heritage gardens. With a staff of around 300, New Hall is a warm, welcoming and supportive community. A new London rail station will open in 2025, at New Hall’s front gate: Stratford, 26 minutes; London Liverpool Street, 34 minutes.
