What the school offers its staff
The governors of Brough Community Primary School are looking to appoint a PPA cover teacher to join our lovely and thriving village school, from after the February half term, W/C 24th February 2025. The post will be for one full day in our fabulous Acorns Class, comprising Reception and Year 1 pupils. The post would be suitable for all teaching applicants, from Early Career Teachers to experienced practitioners. We are also happy to hear from qualified Higher Level Teaching Assistants, who could take the class with appropriate support and planning in place. There is flexibility within the week as to which day this would be. Please have a look at our website to get a feel for the school: www.broughschool.org .
Brough Community Primary School is a thriving, successful school with a great staff team. We are rated ‘Good in all areas’ by Ofsted (2019) and are national leaders in online learning.

This is an exciting opportunity for any teacher seeking to work in a progressive, caring school which is at the heart of its community. We are also conscious that jobs are two-way processes and it would be just as important to hear what you would also like to get from us as a school – we are committed to delivering high-quality CPD for all staff! As well as this one day per week, there would inevitably be the need to call upon trusted staff for extra cover periods and we would hope this appointment would be our first port of call for those requests.
