Fixed Term position available from September 2026 – September 2027
Ever dreamt of a job where you’re a storyteller, mathematician, scientist, occasional classroom DJ and part-time detective – sometimes all before lunch?!
We’re looking for a teacher who can turn a classroom into a learning adventure, explain fractions without losing their sanity, and survive the odd paint spill in art!
We believe learning should be fun, meaningful and full of creativity because that’s when children make great progress. Our teachers are valued, our pupils are curious, and our school is a place where brilliant ideas are encouraged.
Whether you have many years of experience or are new to the profession, if you’re the kind of teacher who believes every child has the potential to shine, who isn’t afraid to get stuck into a themed dress-up day, and who loves the feeling of seeing ‘lightbulb moments’ in the classroom – this is the place for you!”

Winton Primary School is situated in Bournemouth on the south coast and is one of the largest primary schools in the south west, with over 800 pupils.
Whilst we are large enough to offer staff development and career opportunities , due to the way we separate our school structure we retain a "smaller" school feeling so that our teachers and support staff feel valued and part of all that is going on around them.
At Winton we want to be a school that is at the heart of the community, a place where pupils are happy and engaged with their learning and somewhere that all children succeed. It sounds simple, but ensuring that it happens requires hard work from a dedicated and committed staff team. We want our young learners to be excited by the curriculum, responsible members of our school community and move onto the next stage of their education well prepared. We know that to be a successful school we must ensure that children make good progress during their time here and be achieving the highest standards they can. By so doing they will be able to go on to be successful in their future.
