About the job

Visiting Teacher of Oboe

£42.94 per hour

To start September 2024

We are a school that values diversity and individual contribution; supporting and encouraging both students and staff to pursue their interests and achieve their ambitions.

We are looking for an inspiring teacher of oboe to join the talented team of visiting music teachers at Latymer Upper School from September 2024.

Latymer has a thriving music department and is looking for a teacher of oboe who would be able to take on circa 4-5 hours' teaching per week involving individual lessons, usually lasting 30 minutes.  

We are looking for a teacher who is able to teach in a range of styles with confidence, and is able to inspire students in both our Prep School and our Upper School, ranging in age from 7–18; empathy with the entire age group is therefore essential. The Visiting Music Staff, all of whom are employed by the school, are an engaging group of outstandingly talented musicians and teachers, and the department is always buzzing and alive.

The School is fully committed to the principles of equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. We have an established and representative staff Equality and Diversity Board to help drive forward positive change. A further Equality and Diversity Committee has recently been formed from our student population.

We are committed to attracting and retaining the very best staff, ensuring that our staff body reflects the diversity of our students and local community. Acknowledging a lack of ethnic diversity within our staff community, we particularly encourage applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) candidates for this role. All appointments will be made on merit, following a fair and transparent process. In line with the Equality Act 2010, however, the School may employ positive action where diverse candidates can demonstrate their ability to perform the role equally well.

The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The post is subject to an enhanced DBS check, online checks and two satisfactory references.
