At KGV, we are launching the UAL Diploma in Music as part of the introduction of The Academy from 2026, a bold new initiative designed to provide high-quality, performance-focused training. This course provides learners with the opportunity to develop a broad range of musical knowledge, technical ability and creative skills, with a strong emphasis on practical performance and production.
As such, applicants must demonstrate excellent knowledge of both performance and creative disciplines, alongside the ability to deliver high-quality teaching and learning across a range of musical contexts.
In addition to teaching, the successful candidate will take on a key leadership role as Musical Director for Academy productions, shaping the musical direction of performances and working collaboratively with staff and students across Dance and Drama. This includes leading rehearsals, developing vocal and instrumental arrangements, and ensuring high-quality live and/or recorded musical performance.
Alongside delivery of the UAL Diploma, the successful candidate will work collaboratively with the wider teaching team to support the College Production co-curricular programme, which is open to Music, Dance and Drama students, as well as the wider student community. This programme culminates in a range of performances, including the annual Christmas production, mid-year showcase and end-of-year show.
We are seeking a dynamic, innovative and enthusiastic practitioner who will bring fresh energy to The Academy, contributing to an ambitious, industry-informed and high-quality student experience.
