What skills and experience we're looking for
Are you passionate about Teaching and Learning and dedicated to making a positive impact on children’s lives?
The team at Hunsley Primary are looking to appoint a classroom teacher to work predominantly in KS2, who will play a pivotal role in inspiring the next generation of young learners.
Starting in September 2025, the role is full time and will be paid on TEAL’s qualified teachers pay scale (points 1 to 9). This role is fixed-term until August 2026.
Why choose us?
Hunsley Primary offers its pupils an excellent, child-centred education that helps them to develop as confident, lively thinkers with enquiring minds, to enable children to learn across the wider curriculum through discovery and observation, developing their ability to think, reflect and to find creative, problem-solving solutions.
Hunsley Primary opened in Melton, near Brough, in September 2015 as East Yorkshire’s first free school. We first opened our doors on our own bespoke site as part of the South Hunsley School campus and in December 2018 we moved into to our brand new building on Bluebird Way, part of the Brough South development. Hunsley Primary is led by The Education Alliance multi academy trust, benefiting also from being part of the Yorkshire Wolds Teacher Training group, putting professional development at the heart of our staff experience.
An inclusive, nurturing school with high aspiration for all its children, Hunsley Primary makes the most of its unique links with South Hunsley, offering an exciting curriculum shaped for pupils on their learning journey from 4 to 19 years of age. Our team ethos is driven by collaboration, support and development for all.
Within The Education Alliance Multi Academy Trust, there are lots of opportunities for collaboration and also further opportunities to develop and progress. As a trust, we are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives.
For too long in many schools, staff have been asked to choose between being seen as good at their job and being a good mum, dad, partner, son, daughter or friend. We are doing everything we can to support our staff to balance the demands of their jobs and those at home.
To support this, we:
- Trust our staff to plan, prepare and assess at the best time for them, allowing them to go off-site in their PPA
- Have centralised our Behaviour Policy so teachers are freed up from supervising detentions
- Demand ethical leadership built on professional trust
- Reject fads and ensure our CPD is evidence-informed and predominantly subject specific
- Have reduced data collections to twice yearly
- Do not expect staff to respond to emails outside normal working hours
- Do not deploy staff at other Trust schools unless it is at their request
We have removed the following:
- Performance management objectives and performance-related pay
- Lesson observations and high stakes, toxic accountability
- Onerous marking policies
- Requirements for daily or weekly lesson plans
Above all, we recognise that seeking to remove the number of tasks staff undertake will have little effect on improving work/home balance if this happens within a toxic culture. To support this, we offer training for our leaders to ensure they are able to translate our values into behaviours which are built on the principles of dignity, respect, professionalism and integrity.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for an individual who is passionate about Teaching and Learning and wants to make a positive impact on the lives of children.
You must hold Qualified Teacher Status and have knowledge and understanding of the principles and practices of effective teaching and learning, monitoring/ assessment and evaluation.
