I develop and design creative lesson plans following the British Curriculum to engage and inspire student learning and raise an appreciation of music. I ensure that regular assessment plans are implemented to hold students accountable for their learning and accurately monitor student progress. I analyse student data to accurately predict results. I ensure students have access to regular lunchtime and after-school rehearsals to prepare them for performances at school and graded exams to feel confident. I attend, and participate in parents' evenings, opening evenings promoting the music department. As well as arrange and lead extra-curricular activities; marimba club, and school choir, which include running rehearsals, and preparing for school concerts, and performances outside of school to enhance students’ skills, abilities and confidence in society and social settings.

Planned and delivered year 10 GCSE lessons to engage and inspire pupils to develop an understanding of various types of music. Led singing lessons for year 7 classes to promote self-confidence and develop musical ability. Scaffolded lessons for my lower set year 8 classes to ensure 100% completion of daily tasks. Assisted with the music for the school theatre production Mary Poppins. Arranged and led the steel pan club, including running rehearsals and preparing for lunchtime performances, the winter concert, and the Clapham Common Christmas market performance. Followed and adhered to school behaviour policy taking appropriate disciplinary action wherenecessary.
