Peripatetic Music Teacher (Oboe)

Felsted School has a thriving music department and we are currently looking for a Peripatetic Music Teacher of Oboe. The school has a strong tradition of orchestral and instrumental music and the students have many opportunities to perform as soloists and in ensembles. Pupils often work towards ABRSM and Trinity exams.

We are looking for a teacher with considerable experience of teaching at all levels of ability (particularly in inspiring beginners), and has the initiative, vision and the ability to build on the success of our thriving department and contribute to its further development. We particularly welcome applications from those who can teach across all ABRSM and Trinity Oboe grades.

This is a permanent position working term-time only (34 weeks per year). The hourly rate is between £36.53 - £42.15, depending upon which pension scheme you wish to join. The hours of work are dependent on the number of students wishing to study Oboe - this is currently a small number of students across both Prep & Senior Schools, and we would be looking for the successful candidate to be committed to actively growing interest in learning the Oboe. For an informal discussion, please contact Mr W Warns, Director of Music, via hr@felsted.org.

Closing date for receipt of applications is Monday 24 February at 9am.
Interviews will be held shortly after the closing date.
