Music Teacher (Temporary)

Are you a dedicated and highly effective educator committed to raising the achievement of all students within your subject area? Join us as a Teacher, where you will be instrumental in delivering high-quality learning, utilising a range of teaching and learning strategies to ensure student success.

This position requires a professional who is aware of strategies for improving learning, understands curriculum developments, and is creative in finding solutions to enhance student performance.

Essential qualifications include a degree in an appropriate discipline related to the relevant subject and a teaching qualification coupled with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Required experience includes recent and relevant teaching experience (either in employment or training) and experience of assessment at Key Stage 3 and 4.

The successful candidate will be confident in using standard computer packages (word processing, email, and spreadsheets) and understand how these tools can enhance student learning. The role demands high levels of professionalism, including the ability to relate to students in a pleasant and sympathetic manner, and a capacity to recognise potential child safeguarding issues.

At Outwood Academy Riverside, we are already four years into a transformative journey as a MiSST school, where the Andrew Lloyd Webber Programme ensures that every student across Key Stage 3 is gifted their own musical instrument. This commitment has laid a formidable foundation, culminating in the exciting growth of our very own school orchestra. We are seeking a Music Teacher to join our Performing Arts Department as Maternity cover until August 2027 in the first instance, with the possibility of an extension to December 2027. This is an opportunity to join an established department where instruments are already in hands and the talent is flourishing. If you have any questions or would like to visit the school, please contact Mr Richard Gooding at r.gooding@riverside.outwood.com
