Warwick School is seeking to appoint a Head of Academic of Music from September 2025. 

The primary duties of the Head of Academic Music include teaching classroom lessons across the span of age ranges in the Junior and Senior Schools, with specific responsibility for developing a through-curriculum for boys to enjoy across Key Stage 2 through to A Level. The successful candidate will be responsible for the preparation and submission of coursework for public examinations. It is expected that the successful applicant will be eager to contribute to the wider musical life of the department through involvement in ensembles and concerts over the course of the year, according to their area(s) of musical expertise. 

The post will be attractive to an experienced teacher who is looking to take on the responsibility for the curriculum side of a busy department. This is a great opportunity for a highly qualified individual to join a school that is seeking to build on the success of winning Independent Boys School of the Year for 2022 and deliver on our vision of being the most inspiring, rounded, and caring boys’ school in the UK. With five pupils in Year 13 accepting places to study amongst the UK’s most prestigious conservatoires and two winning places to read Music at Oxford and Cambridge next year, the Music department has a plethora of talented students tackling high-level orchestral, jazz and chamber repertoire; this would be an exciting place for any musician to teach in.
