Further Information
We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, highly motivated and inspirational teacher of Music to teach across all Key Stages within a very successful department. This would initially be a one year contract, with the possibility of this being made permanent and progression to Curriculum Leader for Music if the candidate is successful in the role. The music department runs BTEC Music at KS4 and KS5 and Performing Arts at KS4. There is an extensive extracurricular programme and a good uptake of peripatetic music lessons, which the successful candidate would need to sustain.

This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the region’s highest performing schools; in May 2014 Ofsted graded every aspect of Churchill Community College as ‘outstanding.’ In addition, we are a Teaching School and lead The Great North Maths Hub. Our Executive Headteacher is a National Leader of Education. Our value added data, published in January 2017, places us as the 4th top school in England for pupil performance, measured against similar schools and 2nd top school in the north-east of England measured against all schools. The college is recognised for the outstanding professional development programme we offer our staff.

The successful candidate will be:
• An excellent practitioner with a passion for Music
• Committed to the highest standard of achievement for all students
• An outstanding communicator with excellent interpersonal skills
• An enthusiastic team-player, self-motivated and committed to further professional development.
• Positive in attitude, resilient, a problem-solver and good-humoured
• Committed to the development of Music beyond lessons e.g. extracurricular activities, school productions and links with primary schools
• Committed to supporting other staff who teach music and performing arts within the department

The Music department enjoys a reputation for excellent, dynamic teaching and learning. Achievement is strong and the post offers a superb opportunity for an energetic teacher with excellent skills to develop further within a positive and supportive environment. It is suitable for an experienced teacher or someone at the start of their career.

All staff that join the school benefit from a carefully structured programme of training and support and are provided with a school iPad.

Churchill Community College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. As such an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) disclosure will be sought along with other relevant employment checks deemed appropriate.
