<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif">We have an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic and committed <strong>Classroom Teacher (Music Focus) </strong>to join our dynamic and welcoming community. <br><br></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt">This role comprises two days per week providing RFF for staff by taking classes for music.
