What skills and experience we're looking for

Inspire. Ignite. Challenge.

Join a school where every child is known, valued, and inspired to achieve their full potential, both academically, socially, and emotionally.

Oak Hill Academy is a vibrant, oversubscribed and Outstanding junior school where there is a genuine buzz for learning in every classroom. As part of the Aspirations Academies Trust, our mission is simple: to help children dream big, believe in themselves, and achieve excellence in everything they do.

We don’t just teach the curriculum, we nurture the whole child, building confidence, resilience, curiosity, and leadership so every pupil leaves Year 6 ready for the future.

Why Oak Hill?

At Oak Hill, you’ll be joining a school where:

  • We are a true “Oak Hill family”- staff, pupils and parents working together in strong partnership

  • Learning is dynamic, creative and purposeful, built around our innovative “No Limits” curriculum

  • Children are encouraged to develop self-worth, engagement and purpose in everything they do

  • High expectations are balanced with warmth, humour and genuine care

  • Reading, communication and rich vocabulary are at the heart of everything we do

  • Pupils are prepared not just for tests - but for life beyond primary school

Our ethos is built on the Aspirations framework: our 3 Guiding Principals (Self Worth, Engagement and Purpose); our 8 Conditions (Belonging, Heroes, Sense of Accomplishment, Fun & Excitement, Curiosity & Creativity, Spirit of Adventure, Leadership & Responsibility and Confidence to Take Action) and 5 Power Skills (Communication, Collaboration, Character, Critical Thinking, Creativity).

The Role

We are looking for an enthusiastic and reflective KS2 Class Teacher (ECTs or experienced teachers welcome) who will:

  • Deliver high-quality, engaging learning across the KS2 curriculum

  • Maintain excellent behaviour and a culture of high aspiration

  • Work collaboratively as part of a supportive, forward-thinking team

  • Contribute positively to the wider life and ethos of the school

  • Believe deeply that all children can achieve success

You will be someone who:

  • Has high expectations for every pupil, regardless of starting point

  • Brings energy, creativity, and a sense of fun to learning

  • Is committed to professional growth and ongoing CPD

  • Works brilliantly in a team and values strong relationships with families

  • Is proactive, adaptable, and passionate about making a difference

We offer:

  • A warm, welcoming school with a strong community ethos

  • Children who are enthusiastic, respectful, and love learning

  • Outstanding CPD and career development opportunities (including ECT support)

  • A forward-thinking Trust committed to staff growth and wellbeing

  • A culture where your ideas are valued and your impact is visible every day
