They will combine high expectations with warmth and encouragement, helping beginners discover their musical voice while providing appropriate challenge for our most accomplished musicians.
As a standalone preparatory school, Glendower offers the opportunity to lead a coherent musical journey from the Early Years through to Year 6.

They will bring clear artistic direction, strong organisation and a commitment to ensuring that rehearsals and performances are purposeful, polished and enjoyable.
Working closely with colleagues and visiting music teachers, the Head of Music will build a culture in which music is valued, participation is encouraged and talent can flourish. They will also support pupils preparing for examinations, auditions and senior school music scholarships at the best London-day and boarding schools.
This role will suit an accomplished pianist and confident musical director who enjoys working with young children, communicates effectively with families and is ready to make a visible contribution to school life.
