To maintain our high standards, we are looking for an outstanding teacher to provide maternity cover for our Year 6 class. This is a full-time position until the end of the summer term in 2027.

The successful candidate will join a highly experienced and skilful team who work tirelessly to unlock the potential of our amazing pupils.

The successful candidate must have experience of teaching in Year 6 and will have the ability to deliver quality teaching that drives forward achievement and inspires a love of learning. You will be able to demonstrate experience of achieving positive outcomes for pupils, as well as being passionate about making a difference to the lives of young people. As a committed team player, you will have excellent organisational skills and the natural ability to motivate both pupils and peers.

You will have:

• A degree-level qualification and Qualified Teacher Status.
• Experience of innovation and creativity to engage, enthuse and progress learners.
• The ability to deliver effective and outstanding learning and teaching in the classroom.

​​​​​​​If shortlisted, through observation, candidates will have the opportunity to showcase their passion for education and share their ability to motivate and challenge children.  Through interview, they will demonstrate a commitment to all aspects of school life, experience of teaching Year 6 children and an ability to work collaboratively with all staff.
