(Maternity Cover)
The School is looking to employ a visiting teacher of Violin (maternity cover) to join the current Strings team of three who instruct around 60 pupils each week. They will support with the development of Violin technique and musicianship and will nurture a love of playing the instrument and performing in ensembles. Pupils are taught classical repertoire and technique, while being encouraged to use this foundation to explore lighter repertoire, according to their taste.
Lessons and Pupil Numbers
1. The post involves teaching a prescribed number of pupils on an individual basis, although some degree of flexibility in numbers needs to exist depending on demand. Each lesson or “hash” lasts 40 minutes, although there is a 5 minute break between each ‘hash’ enabling pupils to move within the school.
2. Pupil Numbers: the School reserves the right to vary the number of hours a music teacher is required to teach at its discretion but normally according to the number of pupils expressing a wish to have individual lessons or in accordance with other factors, such as a decision by the School to engage additional music teachers, or to reallocate pupils between existing music teachers. In accepting the post of Music Teacher, a music teacher accepts the fact that the School cannot guarantee a minimum number of hours work.
