This is an exciting opportunity to join an energetic, forward-thinking and high-achieving department. The School has an excellent reputation for the performing arts, and the Music Department actively promotes performance to the highest possible standards.

Music is a compulsory subject in the First and Second Year and a significant number of boys elect to study Third Year, GCSE and A Level music, with a number of boys in recent years going on to study music at Conservatoire and at University.

Hampton is an academically selective School and pupils’ enthusiasm for the study of Music is encouraged by imaginative, varied and challenging courses at all levels of the School, up to and including Oxbridge preparation.

The post would suit a well-qualified Teacher of Music with experience of teaching in a highly academic setting or an aspiring graduate. A contribution to the wider life of the School is also expected from staff at Hampton.

Equality, diversity and inclusion are fundamental to our ethos and the School has a thriving partnerships programme.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds. Alongside those joining us from university PGCE courses or as experienced teachers, we recruit talented people from a variety of sectors, including post-doctoral research, universities, industry, and commerce. Successful candidates who are new entrants to the teaching profession are supported towards qualified teacher status (QTS) via an in-post PGCE course offered in conjunction with the University of Buckingham.

The School has its own salary scale and offers generous non-contractual benefits, well above the maintained sector, to attract high-calibre candidates.  There is a very strong commitment at Hampton to supporting the continuing professional development of colleagues.

We encourage applications as soon as possible as the School reserves the right to commence or complete the interview process at any time prior to the closing date.
