Head of Music for the Preparatory School

Deadline Date: 16th February 2026

Applications are invited for the post of Head of Prep Music. We seek a visionary leader and dynamic practitioner to champion a department that sits at the very heart of our school community. A successful track record of music teaching in an independent prep school is an advantage but not a requirement of the role.

This is a full-time, permanent position which commences on Tuesday, 1st September.

Applications should be made on the application form available on this website. Applications should be e-mailed to the Head of the Preparatory School, Mr Bill Sawyer, as soon as possible and no later than 9am on Monday 16th February. The school reserves the right to interview before the closing date if appropriate to the context of the field. Early applications are therefore very much encouraged. Applications should be submitted to: prepschool@yarmschool.org
