Music Teacher

An ambitious and inclusive secondary school in Newcastle is looking for a passionate and dedicated Music Teacher to join the team this September.

This is a school where Kindness, Integrity, Determination, Manners, Ambition and Positivity underpin everything they do. Staff work collaboratively to create a culture where creativity, self-expression and high expectations go hand in hand, encouraging every student to discover their talents and develop confidence through music.

Whether you're an experienced Music Teacher or an ECT looking for the right school to begin your career, this could be an excellent opportunity.

Full-Time | September Start | Long-Term Opportunity with Permanent Potential

The Role

As a Music Teacher, you will:

• Teach Music across KS3 and KS4
• Deliver engaging practical and theory lessons that inspire creativity and musical confidence
• Develop students' performance, composition and listening skills
• Encourage participation from students of all abilities
• Create an inclusive classroom where every student feels confident to perform and express themselves
• Work collaboratively within a successful Performing Arts department
• Contribute to concerts, performances, productions, choirs and extracurricular music activities

You'll be joining a department that values creativity, collaboration and helping every student discover a lifelong appreciation for music.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Supportive leadership team and collaborative staff culture
• High expectations alongside excellent pastoral support
• Dedicated music facilities and specialist teaching resources
• Clear behaviour systems that allow teachers to focus on teaching
• Excellent CPD and career progression opportunities
• Long-term opportunity with potential for a permanent role

This is the kind of school where teachers are encouraged to inspire creativity, nurture talent and make a lasting impact through the arts.

We're Looking For

• Qualified Music Teachers (QTS or equivalent)
• ECTs looking for a supportive start to their teaching career
• Strong classroom practitioners with excellent subject knowledge
• Teachers who can inspire creativity, confidence and a love of music
• Educators who build positive relationships while maintaining high expectations
• Experience leading or supporting extracurricular music activities is desirable but not essential
