The GORSE Academies Trust Primary Partnership is seeking to recruit exceptional teachers to join a newly established team of casual teachers.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of our internal trust workforce, providing high-quality teaching and support across our primary academies as required. Unlike traditional agency supply work, successful candidates will become part of the wider GORSE family, working within a highly successful and values-driven trust committed to securing exceptional outcomes for every child.

We are looking for talented professionals who can quickly establish positive relationships with pupils and colleagues, deliver high-quality learning experiences and uphold the high expectations and standards synonymous with GORSE.

Potential applicants should:

• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
• Have a proven track record of securing strong outcomes for pupils.
• Demonstrate excellent classroom practice and high expectations for all learners.
• Be able to adapt quickly to different educational settings and establish positive relationships with pupils, parents and colleagues.
• Be committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.
• Share our commitment to excellence, inclusion and ensuring every child receives an exceptional education.

We would particularly welcome applications from colleagues who:

• Have experience teaching across the primary age range.
• Are keen to broaden their experience by working across different academies and communities.
• Enjoy working collaboratively with colleagues and sharing effective practice.
• Are looking for a flexible role within a successful and supportive organisation.
• Have the potential and ambition to contribute more widely to academy improvement where opportunities arise.

• Membership of the Teachers’ Pension Scheme.
• The opportunity to work across a successful partnership of primary academies.
• Access to high-quality professional development, networking opportunities and ongoing career support across the trust.
• The chance to gain experience in a variety of educational settings whilst remaining part of one organisation.
