Welcome to Roundwood Primary!

Are you passionate about helping children learn in a nurturing and supportive environment? Would you like to be part of a forward thinking, committed and enthusiastic team? If so, we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for a talented teacher with good subject knowledge to join our team as maternity cover from after May half term, until the end of term in July. Thriving when working as part of an energetic and enthusiastic team of fellow professionals, you will have high expectations for your pupils and be able to inspire them to realise their potential. You will be a flexible practitioner, with a positive outlook on life, who is keen to learn from the practice of others as well as share their own ideas; someone who enjoys working collaboratively to plan and deliver a rich curriculum to meet the needs of all learners.

We are a school with great indoor and outdoor facilities and can offer a lively, supportive and happy environment in which to work. Our children are motivated, well behaved and eager to progress, and we offer plenty of professional development opportunities. Alongside a focus on staff wellbeing, we want to help you build your skills and knowledge (whether you are early in your career as a teacher or more experienced), so you can be the best teacher you can be.
