KS2 Teacher (to start September 2026)
Permanent, Full Time
Main Pay Scale (£32,916 – £45,352 FTE)
Early Career Teachers are welcome to apply

The staff and governors are looking for someone who is passionate about high-quality teaching and committed to helping every child achieve their very best. At the same time, we know that the best teachers bring more than strong classroom practice — they bring warmth, humour, creativity and the ability to build positive relationships with children, families and colleagues.

Our pupils would love someone who:

• Makes learning exciting, engaging and memorable
• Is kind, patient and fair (but can still spot when they are trying to “borrow” an extra five minutes of break time!)
• Has high expectations and believes every child can succeed
• Enjoys getting involved in school life — whether that’s trips, theme days, performances or special events
• Can laugh at themselves and doesn’t mind that no two days are ever quite the same

We are looking for a teacher who:

• Is an effective and reflective classroom practitioner with high expectations of achievement and behaviour
• Has a secure understanding of the Key Stage 2 curriculum
• Is committed to inclusive practice and meeting the needs of all learners
• Is eager to develop professionally and engage in high-quality CPD opportunities
• Works well as part of a team and contributes positively to the wider life of the school

In return, we can offer:

• Wonderful children who are enthusiastic, caring and full of personality
• A supportive and collaborative staff team who genuinely enjoy working together
• A strong commitment to professional development, including support for Early Career Teachers
• Opportunities to make a real difference to the lives of children and their families
• A welcoming school community where hard work is valued, laughter is encouraged and no two days are ever the same

We are looking for someone who wants to be part of something special and make a lasting difference to the children in our school.

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed and encouraged. We would love to hear from you.

Closing Date: Midday on 11^th May 2026
