We are looking to appoint a colleague to join us as a ‘Teacher-in-Charge’ and KS2 (Y3-6) Class Teacher. This is potentially an excellent training ground for a Headship or other senior leader role. Regrettably, this opportunity is not suitable for ECTs.

  • A professional with senior leadership skills or aspirations to develop these, who can contribute and lead on school development initiatives.
  • A highly-organised individual who is able to manage the day-to-day operation running of a small school, balanced with their own teaching commitment, in the absence of Executive Headteacher.
  • Someone who will embrace our nurture principles and a nurturing approach to supporting children with a range of needs.
  • The ability to act as the deputy designated safeguarding lead.
  • A leader who can support the development of subjects/initiatives across their own school and others.

What the school offers its staff

  • Tailored support from our Headteacher, your fellow colleagues and development opportunities.
  • An opportunity to see the unique and huge opportunity that exists here at Goathland School. All the support, energy, and tenacity you will need is here for you to tap into.
  • A warm, happy school where we value our community ethos and have a philosophy of treating each other with kindness and respect.
