Music & Drama Teacher Job at The Independent Schools Council in Richmond

Location: Thomas’s College, Richmond

This is a wonderful opportunity to join a growing team as we build a remarkable curricular and co-curricular programme in music and drama as a key part of the Thomas’s College offer. One of our founding principles is breadth of provision and experience, and the music and drama teams have a central role in delivering on this promise.

We want our programmes in these areas to provide real access to and understanding of the world of professional musicians, actors, directors, choreographers and technicians.

Music and drama should be part of every single student’s life at school and allow those with passions in these areas to take them as far as they can possibly go.

As the school grows, our teams will increase in size, and there will be opportunities for the successful candidate to specialise in music or drama. However, we would always look for a successful collaboration between these areas in aspects of our provision.

Applications are invited from experienced, dynamic and enthusiastic leaders excited by the scope of this opportunity. For further details visit the Thomas’s London Day Schools website: thomas-s.co.uk/join-our-team or email hrcollege@thomas-s.co.uk
