Self-employed Visiting Music Teacher - Piano
Required from: September 2026 for 1 – 1.5 days per week
Teaching rate: £26.00 per 30-minute lesson
A space has become available for a Visiting Music Teacher (Piano) to use the facilities at Blackheath High Junior School.
Visiting Music Teachers are self-employed and the contract for the provision of lessons is between parents and the VMT. The VMT Agreement is drawn up by the GDST and arrangements for instrumental lessons are managed by the Head of Junior Music, who acts as an agent in making the contractual arrangement with parents.
There are currently 1 – 1.5 days of teaching available, but this is subject to change in demand.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
There are a team of fourteen Visiting Music Teachers at the Junior School in a busy and thriving music department. The post would suit someone who is experienced in teaching beginners as well as preparing students for music examinations as required. Professionalism and excellent communication skills are essential.
The current teaching rate is £26.00 per 30-minute lesson, with the aim of teaching a minimum of 10 lessons per term.
