Teacher of Music

We have a great opportunity for a Teacher of Music to join our collaborative team from September 2024.  Mascalls Academy is incredibly proud to have been awarded a National Area of Excellence for our Creative Arts in our last review. Our regular bill of performances are supported by a wide range of subject areas including Dance, Music and Art. They are always attended by a large number of our school community, all with the intention of celebrating the talent and hard work of our wonderful students. This year we have celebrated our inaugural ‘OnMas’ festival where singers, bands, individual musicians, rappers have all performed on the festival stage for our school community to watch, dance and celebrate their talents.

The Music department sits within Performing Arts alongside Dance and Drama and is a vibrant and incredibly well organised department with a host of talent across the team.

We pride ourselves on strong leadership, excellent outcomes and high expectations of all. Our curriculum is engaging and structured to build, interleave and consolidate the skills needed to prepare students for success and for life! Our ideal candidate will have the drive to deliver outstanding results across the key stages.

Teachers at Mascalls Academy can expect;

Impeccable student behaviour in classrooms and around the academy;
High levels of focus in students;
Students who are committed to their learning and want to do their very best;
Students who work well together and show the highest level of respect towards each other and towards members of staff;

Please be aware that interviews may be conducted on a rolling basis, therefore, early applications are strongly encouraged. If you are interested in visiting the academy, please contact Lorraine Hughes on Lorraine.Hughes@mascallsacademy.org.uk

Working at Mascalls Academy: Mascalls Academy is a secondary school at the heart of the community and our small school model ensures that each and every student gets the personal support and challenge they need to reach their full potential. The academy is divided into four colleges – Shackleton, Earhart, Luther King and Marie Curie Sixth Form College each having their own personality and range of specialisms, allowing them to be unique.

Mascalls Academy is a high achieving institution. Our most recent Ofsted inspection notes “ambitious leadership has established an ethos where staff are committed to driving standards up”, that Mascalls is a “happy place to be” and that “staff feel valued”. Our judgement that we are a ‘Good’ school with ‘Outstanding’ leadership and behaviour is accurate. It is our vision to become ‘Outstanding’ in every category.

Mascalls Academy is a dynamic and exciting place to work and the fantastic leadership team are committed to making it great for people at all stages in their careers. Our building and facilities are a mix of designs with two new buildings being modern, light and airy giving the academy a unique and special character.
