Teacher of Academic Music and Musicianship We are seeking to appoint an inspirational teacher capable of delivering the highest standards of teaching and learning in a world-leading specialist music school. The Academic Music Department at the Purcell School offers a unique programme of study, which forms an important part of every student's specialist musical education. Analysis and aural awareness are at the heart of everything we do and high-level training in these areas is a core component of the curriculum for every student. In Years 7 to 9, students study a series of topics which form the basis of creative and analytical projects, designed to expand their general musical knowledge and inform their practical studies. In Year 10, students follow the AQA GCSE music syllabus and in Year 11, they prepare for Sixth Form study through an in-depth study of larger scale works. In the Sixth Form, we currently offer A Level Music (OCR) and, in an exciting expansion of our provision, we have recently announced our intention to offer a new vocational pathway (RSL Diploma in Creative Music Industry) from September 2026. Students opting for the vocational programme will complete a broad music course, equivalent in size to three A Levels, with tailored classes designed for those in our classical performance, jazz, commercial, music production and composition departments. The school's Musicianship Programme runs in tandem with the above. In Years 7 and 8, pupils attend three Musicianship classes per week: these small-group classes include opportunities to explore music theory and analysis from aural and practical perspectives. From Year 9, students can choose from a range of electives (including advanced analysis, grades 6-8 music theory, keyboard skills, music technology and conducting), all designed to complement their instrumental studies and their core aural, analysis and exam classes. All students attend a weekly composition class and choir rehearsal. Purcell students achieve exceptional grades in Music and nearly all go on to study the subject at either conservatoire or university. Students who intend to apply to university to read Music are prepared for entrance examinations and interviews, with recent school leavers taking up places at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard and SOAS. Music teachers at the Purcell school have a varied timetable and the successful candidate should expect to contribute to the delivery of music history, analysis, composition and general musicianship programmes and to work with students from across the age range. This will include classes linked to GCSE, A Level and Diploma programmes. In addition, we encourage our teachers to develop their own projects and courses, as related to their own musical specialisms and interests. Depending on expertise, experience and qualifications, there may also be opportunities for the successful candidate to contribute to the delivery of performance classes and/or our music technology programmes.
