Visiting Music Teacher - Piano (Three Days of Teaching)

About the job

We are seeking to appoint an inspiring, committed and highly-skilled Visiting Music Teacher (VMT) Piano, to join a first-class Music Department.

The Music Department is well resourced and, as such, there are many opportunities to support extra-curricular activities through additional group coaching and to accompany concerts and pupils at the direction of the Director of Music. 

VMTs are recruited by the Head and Director of Music. They are responsible to the Head, via the Director of Music, in all matters relating to performance, ensembles, recruitment and pupil progress and the day-to-day management of their timetables.

The successful candidate will be an outstanding teacher with a passion for inspiring our youngest musicians to perform to the highest possible standard, as well as being an active performer in their own right.

VMTs are self-employed and invoice parents directly each term. They are expected to communicate with parents to arrange lessons, organise payment and report on progress. The appointment is in addition to the current team of 24 VMTs teaching over half of the pupils at Newton Prep.

To apply, please submit your CV, a cover letter (which does not exceed more than one side of A4) and a video (not exceeding more than three minutes), explaining your suitability for the post.
