EYFS Class Teacher job summary
Thank you for your interest in the post of Class Teacher at Christ the King Catholic Academy. This temporary position offers an exciting opportunity for an Early Careers teacher or more experienced professional, ready to join our team of dedicated staff for one year initially (1st September 2025 until 31st August 2026).
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, skilled teacher who will support the schools’ aspirations for improving the life chances of the children and families we serve. The post is a temporary maternity cover, and the successful candidate would take up the position from 1st September 2025.
The position advertised involves leading an effective play based learning environment that will in turn make a significant contribution to the positive educational outcomes of our children. Both of our schools are one form entry however shared planning, organisation and discussion opportunities are frequent between our two sites. There are also opportunities to move between sites, in future years should this be something that interests you.
Christ the King Catholic Academy’s learning space has had some recent improvements, including the creation of an SEN provision called “The Meadow”. This is a bespoke unit that supports up to eight high needs children. Teaching commitment for this role would be across both the Meadow provision and our EYFS teaching and learning spaces.
Although the position is based at Christ the King it is important to understand the close working relationship between them and St Cuthbert’s due to the shared leadership team structure. Both schools are unique and distinct in their own way but share a consistent curriculum, behaviour policy and governing body. This special partnership, along with our network with other local Catholic schools in the Blackpool area, continues to strengthen both the practice and faith development of our two schools.
