Would you like to teach Music to students who are motivated and interested in your subject?  If so, then we are looking for an excellent, innovative classroom practitioner with the ability to inspire students and willingness to make a positive contribution to our department.  The successful applicant will be someone with the energy and enthusiasm to develop our teaching of KS3 Music.

We are looking for someone who is excited to be an integral part of our extra-curricular music making.  The ability to teach music to both GCSE and A Level is not required but there may be scope to develop this into the role for the right candidate.  The ability to teach another subject is highly desirable.

This is a wonderful career opportunity to work in a very strong, successful and supportive team in a popular school.   We welcome applications from experienced or newly qualified teachers. 

Highworth Grammar School is an over-subscribed 11 – 18, selective girls’ school of 1545 students with 453 students in the Sixth Form (90 boys).  We are situated in the South East of England, with excellent transport links to both the rest of Kent and London. 

We have a longstanding tradition of academic excellence coupled with outstanding pastoral care and Highworth is indeed a great place to teach. Why not come and be a part of our exciting future?

Further information and an application form are available here.    We do not accept CVs.
