Peripatetic Cello Teacher

St Nicholas’ School is a thriving, forward-looking independent day school for girls aged 3 - 16 and boys 3 - 7. Set within 30 glorious acres of Hampshire countryside, the school enjoys modern, well-resourced classrooms, small classes and excellent academic results. Pupils at St Nicholas’ School are highly motivated and keen to learn.

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, inspiring and well-qualified visiting musician to teach the Cello to pupils at St Nicholas' School, for approximately two hours per week, during term time. There is the opportunity to increase these hours with input from the successful candidate. The post-holder will work on a self-employed (peripatetic) basis.

The School is an equal opportunities employer.

Closing date: 30 November 2024

We will be interviewing on a rolling basis and reserve the right to close the vacancy when a suitable candidate has been appointed. Therefore, early applications are recommended to avoid disappointment.
