We are seeking a Head of Music to cover a period of maternity leave, beginning January 2027. The role would suit someone inspiring, positive and fun, combined with warmth and charisma to engage the entire school community. If you love the holistic, bustling nature of independent school life, including after school commitments, you will fit right in. You cannot hide behind a desk in this role, with two major productions per year, weekly hymn practices, assemblies, and frequent tea time concerts. This role is tailor-made for a pianist and for someone who thrives under pressure. If you can sight-read flawlessly, accompany nervous children on the fly, and conduct a choir from behind the keys, you will love this job.
If you’re passionate about education and want to be part of a school that truly champions childhood, we’d love to hear from you. To discuss any aspect of working at Chandlings Prep, please contact:
