*Craig Robinson has lined up work following the series finale of “The Office.”

He’ll remain with the network for a new workplace comedy from “The Office” producer Greg Daniels. The untitled single-camera project will center around a talented musician (Robinson) who adjusts to his new life as a middle school music teacher, where he maneuvers precocious kids, teacher politics, and the temptations of single moms.

Owen Ellickson, a supervising producer on “The Office,” is set to write and executive produce the pilot for Universal TV, Daniels’ Deedle Dee Production and 3 Arts Entertainment.

Robinson will serve as a producer on the project.
