Contract Type: 6-week temporary placement, with the possibility of extension

Leader Education is seeking a passionate and enthusiastic Music Teacher to join a large secondary school in Wakefield. This exciting role will commence after February half term and offers an excellent opportunity to inspire students through music and performance.

• Foster an inclusive and creative learning environment that encourages student participation.
• Collaborate with colleagues to contribute to the school's wider cultural and extracurricular activities.
• Maintain accurate records of student progress and provide feedback to students, parents, and senior staff.

The Successful Candidate Will Have:

• A strong background in music, with teaching experience in a secondary school setting (preferred but not required).
• The ability to engage and motivate students of varying abilities and backgrounds.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• A commitment to maintaining high standards of teaching and safeguarding practices.
• Flexibility and adaptability to work effectively within a large school environment.
• A valid enhanced DBS check (or willingness to obtain one).

Leader Education Offers:

• Competitive pay rates.
• £100 refer-a-friend bonus (terms apply).
• Free CPD training opportunities to support your professional development.
• Dedicated support from a knowledgeable consultant throughout your placement.
• Potential opportunities for longer-term or permanent contracts.

All applicants will undergo a thorough vetting process, including an enhanced DBS check and comprehensive reference checks, in line with our safeguarding commitments to young people.
