Monarch Education is looking for an experienced and confident Supply Music Teacher to support secondary schools in and around Faringdon.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a strong background in Music who enjoys the flexibility of supply teaching while still having the opportunity to make a real impact in the classroom.

QTS is not essential for this position. What is essential is strong Music knowledge, previous experience working with secondary-aged students and the confidence to lead a classroom independently.

The Role

As a Supply Music Teacher, you will be responsible for delivering engaging Music lessons to students across KS3, KS4 and KS5.

Depending on the placement, work may range from day-to-day cover through to longer-term assignments. You could be stepping into pre-planned lessons or taking greater responsibility for delivering and adapting lessons over a longer period.

Your responsibilities may include:

• Delivering Music lessons across KS3-KS5
• Confidently managing a secondary classroom
• Following existing lesson plans and schemes of work
• Adapting lessons to suit different abilities and learning needs
• Supporting students with both theoretical and practical elements of Music
• Maintaining a positive, engaging and productive learning environment
• Following individual school policies and safeguarding procedures
• Providing continuity and consistency for students during staff absence
• Building positive relationships with pupils and school staff

Who We’re Looking For

You do not necessarily need QTS to be considered. We are particularly interested in candidates who have:

• Strong subject knowledge and a genuine passion for Music
• Previous experience teaching, tutoring or delivering Music to young people
• Confidence working with students across KS3-KS5
• Strong behaviour and classroom management skills
• The ability to quickly adapt to different schools, classes and environments
• A professional, reliable and proactive approach
• Confidence taking responsibility for a classroom independently
