Are you passionate about your field of expertise and want to share this with the next generation of musicians, music producers and more? We are offering an exciting opportunity for a teacher of music to join the team in contributing to and delivering an outstanding curriculum at the UK's first secure school. We are looking for people with experience of teaching or a career in trade looking to make a transition into teaching and make a difference to the lives of children in custody.

Your role as a music teacher will be integral to the progress of all children at Oasis Restore, to deliver aspirational educational outcomes. You will be responsible for outstanding teaching that develops curious and dedicated learners, keen to develop their instrumental/vocal skills, music theory, sight-reading, composition, and music production; to support students' musical growth and meet their individual needs and interests. You will have the opportunity to teach a second subject area, developing your own practice with the necessary support to deliver consistently outstanding teaching. You will launch and continuously contribute to a creative music curriculum and enrichment offer underpinned by progressive pedagogies, in line with the national curriculum and a variety of formal qualifications, setting a true gold standard for learning.

You will be an integral part of a passionate, committed, and ground-breaking multidisciplinary team, working integratively towards improving the outcomes for children so often overlooked. Together, we will devise strategies to empower children to take ownership of their own learning journeys, so preparing them for successful transitions into the next phase of their journey. You will teach class sizes of 5 children, with the support of two additional staff to tailor learning support to each student, with access to specially designed education buildings with two brand new music studios, ICT suite and a teaching classroom.

As a champion of restorative practice, you will place relational connection at the heart of everything you do. Your work will be the driving force that enables children to transition out of Oasis Restore with the support in place for them to succeed in the next step of their journeys.
