Lift Noel Park Primary is looking for a brilliant Year 5 teacher to join our KS2 team.

This is a great opportunity to take ownership of a Year 5 class at a key point in their journey. You'll play an important role in helping pupils grow in confidence, build independence, and get ready for the step up to secondary school.

We're looking for someone who knows how to bring learning to life in the classroom, builds strong relationships with pupils, and has high expectations for what every child can achieve. Experience in KS2 (and ideally Year 5) is important, but just as much, we're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, committed, and genuinely enjoys working with children.

In return, you'll be joining a supportive team that values collaboration, positivity, and doing the best for our pupils every day.
