About the Role
Music Teacher – Full-Time
Start Date: September
Location: Croydon, South East London
Salary: M1 - UP3
Inspire young people to enjoy music!
As you know, music holds a great power among children, especially those with SEN. It can act as an escape from core subjects, and give them creative freedom to express themselves.
The children need the right teacher to bring out that creativity, and help them flourish!
A specialised setting
This specialist school in South East London supports children and young people with various needs, specialising in autism. These pupils may have faced challenges in mainstream education and need a calm, nurturing space to re-engage with learning.
Here, teaching is tailored, relationships matter, and every child is seen as an individual.
You’ll benefit from:
- Smaller class sizes that allow for personalised teaching and strong relationships
- Modern, well-resourced classrooms that bring creativity and structure to lessons
- A collaborative team of therapists and support staff who work alongside you daily
- Specialist learning areas, including sensory spaces, outdoor classrooms, and creative zones
- A strong emphasis on wellbeing, for both staff and students
You Don’t Need to Be a SEND Expert—Just the Right Kind of Teacher
If you’ve never worked in a specialist setting before, that’s absolutely fine. What matters most is your passion for helping young people grow. Full SEND training and ongoing CPD are provided from the start, helping you build confidence in the role and develop your skills.
