Who We Are
SupaJam is a music focused post-16 Specialist Provider, supporting vulnerable and disadvantaged 16 - 25 year olds across our three bases in Swanley, Canterbury and Brighton.
At SupaJam we use our students’ passion for contemporary music to trigger re-engagement in education and champion achievement across our Music Practitioner, English, Maths and Life Skills syllabuses. Our ethos is to be forward thinking, caring and encouraging whilst providing a structured, supportive and non-judgmental environment.
The Role
Are you a passionate teacher with a drive to teach English? Do you want to make a difference to the lives of vulnerable young people? Do you agree that English should be embedded across all programmes and is a vital aspect of a student's education? If the answer is yes, an exciting opportunity exists to join our teaching team at SupaJam, one of the country’s leading education providers.
With so many of our young people having previously fallen out of formal education we use their passion for music to reignite their desire to learn and achieve. We teach the RSL Music Practitioners Diploma (business pathway) at levels 1-3, as well as English and Maths and additional programmes that cover SMSC, British Values, Practical Musicianship and work experience. To continue the growth and educational excellence of the organisation, we are now seeking an additional English Teacher to join our team!
SupaJam is committed to diversity and inclusion, and we believe this helps us to be a more relevant and effective organisation.

SupaJam is a unique group of Post-16 specialist music colleges based in Swanley, Canterbury and Brighton established for young people who have previously struggled in formal education.
Our students are aged 16 to 19, or up to 25 with an EHCP, have a wide variety of social, emotional or behavioural needs but who all share a passion for music or learning about the music industry.
At SupaJam our young people work to achieve the RSL Music Business Diplomas at Levels 1, 2 and 3, English and Maths, life skills and British Values. Our RSL music classes are small with about 8 students per class. All classes are supported by our Learning Support Practitioners (LSP's) who either have SEN or practical music experience.
Our ethos is to provide a kind, supportive and non-judgemental educational experience that celebrates the skills our young people already have, builds on them and prepares them for a successful progression onto higher education or with within the music industry. Last year over 70% of our leavers progressed to university!
Our Swanley base specialises in live performance, recording, music technology. It also has its own professional recording studio, fully equipped jam room and a dedicated podcasting studio.
Students have opportunities to demonstrate these skills both inside and outside of the classroom and through industry related practical work experience. Our aim is for students to thrive, grow, and discover a love of learning that will continue long beyond their time at SupaJam.
