Wickersley Northfield Primary School is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, skilled and committed Y4 teacher to join our friendly and dedicated team.

At Wickersley Northfield, we want every child to feel that they belong, enjoy learning and have the opportunity to achieve their very best. We are looking for a teacher who shares our high expectations for children and understands the difference that excellent teaching, strong relationships and consistent classroom practice can make.

They will create a positive and inclusive learning environment, know their pupils well and adapt their teaching effectively so that all children can participate, learn and succeed.

The Trust’s work is guided by its four core values—the 4Cs: Child-centred, Collaborative, Curious and Challenging.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a supportive school and Trust where professional learning, collaboration and high-quality classroom practice are valued, and where we remain focused on what matters most—providing an excellent education for every child.
