The successful candidate will be an outstanding teacher with a passion for inspiring our youngest musicians to perform to the highest possible standard as well as being an active performer in their own right.

Visiting Music Teachers are recruited by our Directors of Music from both the Junior School and Senior School.

Visiting Music Teachers are expected to communicate with parents to arrange lessons, organise payment and report on progress, avoiding core subjects where possible, when timetabling. They are also required to submit timetables in advance of teaching to the music administrator.
