Youth Music Initiative creates access to high-quality music making opportunities for young people across City of Edinburgh Council primary schools and special schools. Fully funded by Creative Scotland, Edinburgh’s Youth Music Initiative programme helps develop Creative Learning providing support to schools and establishments across the city.

This is an exciting opportunity for tutors to deliver Youth Music Initiative’s creative musical provisions to learners of all ages in Primary Schools.

Successful applicants should have a sound understanding of group music teaching and knowledge of the current curriculum, delivering vocal and ukulele tuition to pupils with a commitment to inclusion. Successful candidates will demonstrate initiative, ability to work independently and as part of a team and be dedicated to their own personal development.

Successful candidates will work in schools four mornings per week, with a further morning working from home for planning and preparation. In school you will teach full classes of children across a range of year groups, supported by the class teacher. You will work in a selection of schools across the city and may be responsible for moving instruments between schools where required. Please note, these posts are term time only.

This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
