The music department has recently moved into brand new facilities on site offering students access to high quality music making. We also work closely with Newham Music Service as well as our partner schools in Newham Community Learning. We are looking for someone with the initiative, drive and creativity to help us move music forward in exciting new ways.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
