Teacher of Music

A full-time English-speaking post is available in our vibrant Music Department for a Teacher of Music. The ability to offer private instrumental lessons (preferably on piano but other instruments will be considered) is vital, and ensemble leadership skills would be valuable in both classical and popular music styles. Music technology skills would also be useful.  A working knowledge of French would be an advantage although this is not a requirement.

 

Background Information

The Music Department at Le Rosey consists of over 25 peripatetic teachers and 3 classroom teachers. The staff are international, and most are bilingual. The instrumental and vocal teachers may prepare students for ABRSM Exams and are involved in the preparation of numerous different concerts and events throughout the year. Music is studied up to IB in the classroom. At present, over 370 private instrumental/vocal lessons happen on a weekly basis and there are many musical ensembles including an orchestra, several choirs, a jazz band, a rock school, chamber music groups, guitar groups, Orff groups and a string ensemble. All secondary school students who take a private instrumental or vocal lesson are now required to participate in a music group/ensemble.

The Music Department facilities in the purpose-built Paul & Henri Carnal Hall are exceptional and students have regular opportunities to perform in student concerts and musicals in the Rosey Concert Hall housed in the same building. The Rosey Concert Hall https://www.roseyconcerthall.ch/ is also a public venue, welcoming musicians and orchestras of the highest calibre to perform for our school community as well as members of the public. Recent performances have included The Berlin Philharmonic and Pink Martini.

Music facilities are shared with the students and teachers of the International Menuhin Music Academy. Regular open string masterclasses with internationally renowned string soloists and chamber music specialists are held in the Rosey Concert Hall.

All students at Le Rosey benefit from class music lessons until the GCSE years when Music becomes optional. The Junior school students learn music using Edwin Gordon and Carl Orff pedagogy and attend weekly choir rehearsals. Although Le Rosey no longer presents students for GCSE, we consider our GCSE-based course as a good preparation for IB. IB Music classes are small, allowing excellent collaboration between teacher and students.

A teacher at Le Rosey must be willing and able to teach groups of mixed linguistic backgrounds including native English speakers. There are approximately 60 different nationalities amongst the pupils at Le Rosey and many do not have English as their mother tongue. The successful candidates should be able to offer a flexibility of approach and a willingness to understand the problems of non-native speakers of English.

At Le Rosey students and teachers come from all over the world, creating a vibrant and stimulating campus atmosphere. All students sit the IB diploma or French bac and there is a 100% pass rate. Salary scales are Le Rosey’s own and the conditions of work add considerably in kind to the salary.

 

Accommodation and Advantages 

The conditions of work at Le Rosey are attractive:

  • Thanks to a major investment programme, the accommodation provided for teachers is generally of a high standard. Boarding houses are modern or have been sensitively renovated, and apartments are comfortable and reasonably spacious. Le Rosey usually provides more than adequate IKEA-style furniture. Free Internet access is available in all apartments.
  • During the winter term, the school moves up to its winter campus, and interne teachers are provided with chalet accommodation.
  • Ski passes are provided for teachers willing to do supervision on the slopes during the winter (one afternoon per week), and ski classes are offered to beginners who would like to undertake such duties.
  • Food is provided throughout the year and is varied and of an exceptional standard, catering to different dietary requirements.
  • All teachers are entitled to use the school’s extensive sporting facilities including tennis courts, swimming pool, fitness rooms, etc.
  • The school provides a free laundry service for teachers up to a maximum of 20kg per week.
  • Teachers are offered beginners’ French classes.
  • Teachers’ children are educated free of charge at Le Rosey.

 

Candidates should note that we anticipate that this post will be residential although this cannot be guaranteed. If residential, on-campus accommodation is provided, and conditions of work are attractive. If residential, the successful applicant will be expected to play an active role in boarding life, and a willingness to contribute to the co-curricular programme and support the pastoral life of our school is extremely important.

The majority are from the UK, but many other nations are represented, especially the USA and Australia. Le Rosey also employs an important number of French-speaking teachers recruited from France, Switzerland, Canada and Belgium. The teaching faculty is also enormously enriched by native-speaker language and literature teachers from across the world who teach a remarkably high number of foreign language classes, many of them as IB A literature courses.

 

Important considerations for all applicants

Le Rosey is a bilingual (English and French) international boarding school with a strong commitment to excellence. The school is not a British boarding school on the continent, an American prep school in Europe or a Lycée français à l’étranger avec internat – and, although it may have elements of all of these, Le Rosey has a strong and distinctive character of its own. Le Rosey expects all candidates to be appropriately qualified, with at least a first degree and a teaching qualification. Relevant teaching experience is of course desirable and we particularly welcome:

  • knowledge and experience of the International Baccalaureate (preferably with IB training)
  • experience of international education
  • a working knowledge of French
  • experience of and/or a commitment to boarding
  • a commitment to holistic educational principles
  • a committment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people
  • evidence of energy and adaptability – this in a school which changes campus twice in the course of a year.

 

Non-European applications

To our great regret, changes to Swiss law have made it extremely difficult for international schools like Le Rosey to obtain work permits for non-EU citizens. For this reason, applicants without EU passports or Swiss work permits are advised that this reduces their chances of being put on a short list. We will, nevertheless, consider all such applications seriously; and if the nature of the post and the quality of the application make us optimistic about the outcome of what can be a long administrative process, we are ready to undertake it.

 

Recruitment procedures

Vacant posts are advertised on this website, in the local press and on the Times Educational Supplement (or TES) in the UK www.tes.co.uk.

 

All applications for advertised posts should be sent as indicated in the advert.

All applications are acknowledged, but candidates who hear nothing further within the following three weeks should assume that their application has been unsuccessful. Those candidates who are placed on the first short list are sent further details, outlining the nature of the post and conditions of work. Candidates whom we decide to interview are contacted by telephone and/or email. Interviews usually take place in the UK or Switzerland. All successful candidates are interviewed in Switzerland at least once before appointment. Travel expenses to Switzerland from within Europe are automatically and fully reimbursed. We have occasionally interviewed outstanding candidates in the USA and in the Far and Middle East, but applicants from outside Europe are advised that it is not usually practicable to interview them unless they are willing to undertake and at least partly fund the journey to Europe. We recommend such candidates to indicate in their applications whether and when they are able to travel to the UK or mainland Europe.

 

Applications

Applications should comprise:

  • a letter of application, indicating candidate’s educational philosophy
  • a complete Curriculum Vitae (including details of all employment, educational qualifications, as well as personal details such as age and family circumstances which may be important for residential considerations
  • a recent photo
  • the names, addresses and relation to the candidate of three referees.

 

All applications will be treated in confidence.

Aligned with the recommendations of the International Task Force on Child Protection (www.icmec.org/education-portal), Le Rosey holds itself  to a high standard of effective recruiting practices with specific attention to child protection; background checks are carried out, and any candidate eventually appointed will also be expected to provide evidence of his or her suitability for work with children.

 

 

Unsolicited and speculative applications

Le Rosey welcomes applications at any time of the year. They are passed on to the appropriate Academic Director who files those of interest. Applicants may be contacted if there is a possibility of future openings, but this is rare, although it is standard procedure to send acknowledgement of receipt.
