A wealth of musical opportunities for all We seek to appoint a new Assistant Director of Music to join our flourishing schools, set across two attractive campuses in a beautiful part of rural Surrey. The Music Department aims to enable every pupil, regardless of ability, to experience the highest quality and widest range of music possible. Music is an important and respected part of school life, aiming to bring out the best of all pupils, regardless of ability, through an exciting curriculum. The department is entering its next phase of expansion as we strive for excellence in music across King Edward’s Witley and Barrow Hills Schools. Our aim is to provide a seamless and inspirational educational journey from Nursery through to the Upper Sixth, and this is a pivotal and exciting time to join our community.

Aside from teaching across both Schools (Years 5 to 13), they are expected to take part in the wider co-curriculum and pastoral aspects of school life (many of which take place outside normal day-school hours), focusing on inclusion, which is deeply ingrained in our schools and underpins all that we do. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a supportive group of colleagues and the chance to teach, motivate, and inspire diverse and interesting pupils. We also offer job satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment, a competitive salary, a pension scheme, the potential for on-site accommodation at King Edward’s at a significantly reduced rental, and staff fee remission on school fees at King Edward’s and Barrow Hills, as well as free car parking, free use of our gym, swimming pool and sports facilities, all meals on duty and a Cycle to Work Scheme.
