What skills and experience we're looking for
As specialists in early years education, we believe firmly that it is our job to equip our children with secure foundations on which their lifelong learning will build. This includes competence with core skills in reading, writing and maths whilst also recognising the importance of the broader curriculum and pupils’ personal development. We are seeking to appoint a strong F2 teacher to join the Maun team from January 2025, and are keen to appoint the right person to share their skills within our supportive team and successful school. We would welcome applications from both experienced teachers and ECTs with proven capability in teaching F2. The successful candidate will be someone who is knowledgeable and passionate about the importance of high-quality early years provision, and will have relevant, successful teaching experience.
Our skilled Maun Staff Team offers the capacity to give strong support to the successful candidate, whether an ECT or an experienced teacher looking for a new challenge in a different school. Curriculum leadership responsibilities may form part of the role if appropriate to the career stage of the successful candidate and will be agreed according to strengths and experience. This is a fixed-term appointment for the spring and summer terms.
We are looking for a teacher who is:
- Creative, imaginative and passionate about all children having high quality learning experiences across the curriculum
- Forward-thinking, positive, energetic, reflective and highly motivated
- Committed to raising standards and working effectively within a team
- Able to demonstrate excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Committed to working in partnership with our families.

Maun Infant and Nursery School is situated in New Ollerton, an ex-mining village just 3 miles from the legendary Sherwood Forest. It is a mixed area though some aspects of social deprivation do exist. The school was built in the 1970s and was largely open plan until 2019, when a building project modernised the internal school layout with walls and doors to separate classrooms throughout KS1, and to more clearly define shared areas.
There are currently four classes in Key Stage 1: two Year 1 and two Year 2. Our two F2 classes are housed within the main school building, sharing their space for free-flow indoor and outdoor activities as part of the Early Years Curriculum. Maun Nursery occupies a separate building and outdoor play area, with up to 39 children in each morning and afternoon session. Across the school, the learning environment is welcoming and celebratory of our children’s achievements.
The Maun team is a strong and creative one; we all work well together and are committed to promoting the strong school ethos. Through our school motto ‘Reach for the Stars’, we encourage our children to be aspirational, and take every opportunity to develop their knowledge of the world and the possibilities open to them. We also work collaboratively with the families of our pupils and see this as crucial in helping children to maximise their life chances. Connecting with people and building strong relationships is a real passion and strength of the school.
Our curriculum enables active learning which is well-matched to the interests and needs of our children, whilst making good use of our fabulous grounds. Our drive for excellence has seen us regularly updating our curriculum, to make the most of local learning opportunities and to meet the needs of our community. We keenly recognise the value in learning breadth, especially in areas such as art, music, dance and drama to positively enhance curriculum learning and promote positive mental health and wellbeing amongst our pupils.
At the end of Key Stage 1, pupils transfer to The Forest View Academy, the Key Stage 2 school which shares our site. We are involved in on-going, close partnership work with our KS2 colleagues to ensure an effective transition programme is in place.
In the autumn term 2024, we plan to become the eighth academy in The Forge Multi-Academy Trust and are already working within this collaborative team.
