What you’ll be doing

You’ll work closely with teams across The Glasshouse to help plan and run every corner of our Schools Programme. That means being right at the heart of the action – from the first bit of organising to the final round of applause.

Working alongside the Make Music Schools Manager and Coordinator, you’ll support activity including Big Sing, Big Sing for Mini Singers, In Harmony concerts, school visits, and partnership events.

In short, you’ll help make sure everything’s in place so young musicians can get stuck in, feel welcome, and experience brilliant music-making together.

Why it matters

Our schools work isn’t just a timetable of events. It’s about giving children and young people the chance to explore, create, perform, and belong.

Your role will help keep activities, events, and resources on track – making sure we hit our goals and that every young person involved benefits from a high-quality, inclusive music experience.
