Peripatetic Music Teacher: Vocal Teacher/Coach [0-hour (initially 6.5 - 7 hours per week), self-employed]

We are seeking to recruit an experienced visiting vocal music teacher to teach and develop, plan and deliver high quality and engaging learning experiences to our young musicians. The role will initially cover a full day’s-worth of teaching though there may be scope for this to grow at various points of the school year and through additional recruitment.

The successful candidate will have a proven track record of leading pupils to achieve outstanding results, in terms of both general progress, solo and ensemble performance, GCSE/A Level recitals and, where appropriate, in Rock School/Trinity/ABRSM examinations.

The music department boasts a suite of 5 practice rooms (including recording studio), 2 dedicated music classrooms (with industry-level music technology setups) plus additional rehearsal spaces for ensembles.

Guiseley School is full of exceptional young people. All students in KS3 receive one dedicated period to music each week and over 10% of the school access additional music lessons annually. We have a strong record of musical successes with regular performances, touring opportunities and great outcomes in internal and external examinations. 

We have an active, visible leadership team, and a committed staff body. We are committed to the very highest standards of student care and achievement and seek outstanding staff who wish to be part of our success.

We are a value driven organisation. Our key aims, core values of care, aspiration, growth and success sit behind everything we do. The successful candidate for the role will share in our child centred approach to care and ambitious aspirations for their growth and success.

The role can commence as soon as possible after appointment.
