A vibrant and creative secondary school in Taunton is seeking a versatile Early Career Teacher with strengths in both Drama and Music to join its Performing Arts department from September 2025. This exciting hybrid role is perfect for an ECT with multidisciplinary experience and a passion for expressive education.
The school is known for its outstanding performing arts provision, frequently staging school productions, concerts, and drama festivals. You’ll teach both subjects across KS3 and support extracurricular events throughout the academic year.
Why This Role Stands Out:
*
A unique opportunity to teach across two creative disciplines
*
State-of-the-art drama studio and dedicated music suites
*
Supportive, enthusiastic staff and a strong induction programme
*
Opportunities to lead clubs, choirs, theatre trips, and cross-curricular projects
*
A school culture that values imagination, performance, and collaboration
Key Duties:
*
Deliver engaging lessons in both Music and Drama to KS3 (and KS4 where appropriate)
*
Plan and assess learning that fosters creativity, performance, and appreciation
*
Support school-wide events and take an active role in productions and showcases
*
Work with specialist teams to share best practice and creative resources
*
Participate in the school’s ECT programme and wider CPD
About You:
*
A trainee or newly qualified teacher of Music and/or Drama with QTS
*
A confident performer and communicator
*
Passionate about expressive arts education and student engagement
*
Proactive, creative, and team-oriented
*
DBS check completed or in progress
If you’re ready to begin your teaching journey in a school that lives and breathes the arts, this rare opportunity won’t disappoint. Apply now for a September start in Taunton
