Music Tutor - Singing (Part Time) in London

As the music teacher at Ark Franklin, we want you to spread your love of music and performance to the children. We are looking for a passionate teacher that can build confidence and enthuse children with the power of music to create opportunity and change lives.

The role will deliver high-quality music provision across the school from Reception to Year 6 as part of our Specialist Teacher Team. You will deliver engaging music lessons from the basis of “Charanga”, the knowledge-rich curriculum that builds pupils’ musicianship progressively, enabling all children to develop skills in performance, composition and appraisal. You will also contribute to the wider life of the school through leading singing assemblies and supporting musical performances and events. You may also be asked to teach other classes as required within the needs of the school.

Key Responsibilities:

• Have a genuine passion for music and a belief in the potential of every student.
• Know the national primary curriculum for music and be committed to raising attainment.
• Have high expectations for themselves and our pupils.

A school committed to the enjoyment, achievement and well-being of all, with an engaged and supportive wider community. Unrivalled professional development opportunities are available.

We are a three-form entry school committed to serving our diverse population in Kensal Rise. Excellent teaching and learning is at the heart of what we do, enabling every child to fulfil their potential. We are achieving brilliant things; last year our KS2 results were up 21% on the previous year and we have been the most popular school in Brent for the last four years.

The mission for our school is clear and shared by all: to provide every pupil – regardless of the barriers they face - with a complete education of the very highest standard that ensures that they can have the opportunity to go on to university or pursue the career of their choice, as well as live fulfilling and happy lives.

At Franklin, we believe strongly in a warm and positive climate for learning, established through high quality relationships between adults and children – we ensure that we know every child and what makes them unique. Pupils at Ark Franklin receive a high quality education thanks to our pursuit of excellence, high expectations and an “always learning” attitude among all staff, who prioritise their professional development so that we can give our best to the children.
