Instrumental and Vocal Music Teachers

1 week ago


Devon, United Kingdom Devon County Council Full time

Location: Exeter & Exmouth based

We are wishing to recruit dedicated and professional instrumental and vocal Music Teachers who will be responsible for providing high-quality and inspiring music education to students of primary age across our Trust as it expands from four to seven schools. 

We are seeking to employ teachers who are highly skilled and have passionate instrumental or vocal capabilities to join our team. As music teachers, you will be responsible for providing high-quality and inspiring music education to students of differing ages and skill levels. Your primary focus will be teaching individual lessons in our schools across Exeter and potentially for a school in Exmouth, fostering a love for music, and helping students develop their musical interests.

We would particularly welcome applications from teachers of guitar, violin, woodwind, brass, piano/keyboard, singing. 

Lessons are organised by our administration team and bookings are taken at the end of each term so that a timetable can be agreed for the following term. You will provide music lessons from our well-equipped, dedicated music rooms within each school. You will plan and prepare instrumental lessons and provide feedback around student performance and skills via our online tools, preparing students for performances, examinations, and auditions as appropriate. You will be very much complementing the work of the broader team of music teachers so that a comprehensive music service is provided to our children where whole class music lessons are also taught. From time to time the service is reviewed and you would be very much part of that review process. 

Hours can be flexible according to demand, but the posts are available from September 2024 and will be offered on a termly basis once bookings are known. The working hours will be between and each day (Monday to Friday). As we offer music lessons in each of our schools, you are unlikely to have a single fixed school to work from but may be timetabled to work at our different sites within Exeter and our school in Exmouth across a week. 

Successful candidates will be provided with access to the Trust’s IT applications.

We look forward to receiving your application and hopefully meeting you as part of the recruitment process. Please specify the instruments you are able to teach in your application.
