Qatar Doha College Full time

As the Assistant Director of Music, you will be responsible for academic matters and curriculum development, and take an active lead in non-academic matters. Working alongside and supporting the Director of Music, you will inspire staff and pupils within the Music department, ensuring high-quality pedagogy at all levels, effective use of resources and the highest standards of learning, achievement, and support for all students.

The Music Department prides itself on being inclusive as well as high-performing. We are also open-minded and celebrate all types of music, running an incredible array of events throughout the year from National Battle of the Bands to Qatar School Choir of the Year - a large choral event for children aged 5 to 18. We also attend Young Musician of the Gulf and COBIS Music competitions annually. This is in addition to a full complement of internal concerts, productions, and recitals. Our Instrumental Department has a team of 6 full-time instrumental specialists who deliver lessons on strings, woodwind, brass, percussion, guitar, piano, voice, and theory. We are a busy and thriving Department that requires energy, passion, commitment, and forward-thinking vision from its team.

All students are issued an iPad upon entry, and as a Google School, all staff and students use Google Classroom.

**About you**:
Specialist knowledge in a range of pedagogies and principles of instruction is essential, as is the ability to deliver GCSE and A Level music and be able to teach Primary Music when required.

A willingness to lead on music initiatives and activities with rigour through excellent organisation skills, communication, time management and planning is essential. An ability to direct and contribute to a vast array of co-curricular musical ensembles on a weekly basis is required, and performance-level proficiency in at least one instrument, and strong keyboard skills as an accompanist is essential. Experience in technology would also enable a smooth start in our digitally advanced learning environment.
