Visiting Music Teacher - Piano

The Perse Upper School is seeking an inspirational, experienced piano teacher to join our vibrant Music Department, teaching pupils across the 11-18 age range from September 2026. Music is a dynamic, ever-growing department with a rich and varied programme of high-quality events throughout the school year. Our overriding aim is to foster a culture of inclusivity and music for all but with a mindfulness for realising the potential of our most gifted pupil musicians. The successful applicant, as a self-employed Visiting Music Teacher, will be offered the opportunity to teach roughly 15 pupils in weekly individual lessons on the school site. In addition, the successful applicant will be expected to take the following, contracted by the school (on a self-employed basis): · At least one Grade 5+ ABRSM/Trinity aural session. · Piano accompaniment as needed for rehearsals, coursework recordings, concerts, masterclasses, competitions and exams, which may often not fall on their regular one-to-one teaching day(s). The applicant may also be offered small piano-based chamber ensembles to direct. The expected time at the Perse each week—combining individual tuition with aural, accompaniment and possible chamber music duties—will therefore amount to 1.5 days, with the potential to expand subject to pupil request for piano tuition. Individual instrumental lessons are invoiced directly to parents/carers of pupils in a private agreement detailed in the School’s Self-Employed Visiting Music Staff Service Agreement.
