What skills and experience we're looking for

Our Opportunity

We are looking for a teacher to lead our mixed class of year 1 & 2 pupils – known as our Starfish & Turtle Class!

Key stage one is an exciting class to be part of – pupils have flourished from early years and are developing independence, creative skills, and inquisitive minds. You will get to see pupils go from strength to strength in their reading and writing skills – progressing from a love of reading into writing their own stories.

As part of this role, you will work in partnership with an experienced teacher, creating a supportive environment to collaborate with colleagues. You will also receive support from our dedicated teaching assistants. You will have:

• Experience with KS1
• Experienced in delivering and/or leading phonics (ideally Little Wandle)
• A skilled professional who has an engaging and dynamic style of teaching
• Someone who has the drive and ambition to make sure our children achieve their very best

What the school offers its staff

• Delightful children who respond to patience and care
• A staff culture which allows new members to thrive and develop
• Professional development opportunities linked to nurture and SEND
