Job overview
We are looking for someone excited about the potential to provide musical opportunities and raise aspirations for children and young people, particularly those who have limited musical experience. This role is to cover up to one year’s maternity leave from Summer term 2025.
Whilst musical experience might be beneficial, it is not a pre-requisite for this role.
This role requires a certain amount of flexibility, which can be discussed at interview. We anticipate two half days (or one whole day) on site in Radley College, plus a small amount of remote working (up to 4 hours a week) to monitor correspondence and liaise with schools. This is a term-time only role, with reduced hours during state-school term time (where this is outside of Radley term time).
Vocal Animateur (Maternity Cover)
We are looking for an outstanding vocal leader to work with our partner schools, supporting classroom and co-curricular singing, and to lead key singing events throughout the year. This role is to cover up to one year’s maternity leave from Summer term 2025. This includes leading CPD work, targeted support for school choirs, devising singing resources, and directing massed singing events for primary school singers. We are keen to find someone with specialism in singing with KS1 and KS2 children, an understanding of the music curriculum for these key stages, and excitement about the potential to provide musical opportunities and raise aspirations for children and young people, particularly those who have limited musical experience.
Both roles can be combined.
For an informal chat, contact the Precentor, Sam Gladstone 01235 543146. Further details, including how to apply, are on the school’s website: www.radley.org.uk. Closing date for applications is 12 noon on Friday 10 January 2025.
Radley College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
