Kingstone & Thruxton Primary School is seeking an outstanding teacher. The successful candidate will teach Year 4 for the remainder of this academic year. In the Summer Term we will decide on which year group teachers will be teaching in September. The successful candidate will of course be involved in these conversations but would not necessarily be teaching in Year 4 in September.

The successful applicant will be joining a friendly and ambitious team, in a school that strives for excellent standards and aims to produce confident, self-assured and successful young people. We value and develop the whole child and do everything we can to ensure every single child gets the best possible start.

You will be a self-motivated classroom practitioner with excellent professional standards, able to inspire our children and to raise aspirations and achievement through high quality learning experiences. Able to demonstrate a variety of behaviour management strategies and teaching and learning styles, you will be well organised and have high expectations of achievement. Applicants should have a good understanding and knowledge of Key Stage 2.

If you would like to teach children that are happy and eager to learn, and join a supportive and enthusiastic team of teachers, we would like to hear from you. Visits to the school are welcome. If you have any questions, or would like to arrange a tour of the school, please contact our Primary Admin Office on 01981 250338 or ktpsadmin@kingstoneacademy.co.uk.

If you would like an informal discussion about this position with the Head of School, Amy Preece, please contact the Primary Admin Office who will be happy to arrange this for you.
