STAHS is a vibrant school supported by a diverse and enthusiastic community of staff, pupils, parents and alumni. It is important that our staff reflect the diversity of our community, and we therefore welcome and encourage applications from people of all genders and sexual orientation, those from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic backgrounds, and those with disabilities.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly experienced teacher of trumpet to join our thriving Music Department on a self-employed basis. The successful candidate will be committed to delivering high quality teaching to pupils from Year 3 to Year 13 on both the Prep and Senior School sites.

Pupil numbers are estimated to be over 15 next year, in addition to teaching group lessons on our Prep Brass Scheme so it is envisioned that the successful candidate would teach 1.5 to 2 days a week. However, the Music Department are keen to grow these numbers further and are therefore seeking a teacher committed to further developing our brass provision at the school.

If you are passionate about music and able to support, challenge and inspire our pupils whilst modelling our core School values this could be the perfect opportunity for you to join our friendly and welcoming school community.

To be successful in this role, you must have an excellent track record of teaching and be a team player, working within a busy and ambitious department.

This position is offered on a self-employed, sessional basis at a standard hourly rate of £49 per hour.

Closing date for applications: 9am Friday 2 May 2025

Interview date: Monday 12 May 2025

STAHS reserves the right to close the advert early if a suitable candidate is found, therefore early applications are encouraged.

The High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
