You will create a positive and inclusive classroom environment where pupils feel safe, confident, and motivated to learn. A key part of the role is supporting pupils’ transition from EYFS into Key Stage 1 and ensuring learning is appropriately structured, engaging, and accessible.

You will work closely with teaching assistants, phase leaders, and senior leaders to support pupil progress and wellbeing. Effective communication with parents and carers is essential to ensure strong home–school partnerships and consistent support for pupils.

  • Promote positive behaviour, independence, and resilience

  • Maintain a structured, inclusive, and well-organised classroom

  • Monitor pupil progress and maintain accurate assessment records

  • Work collaboratively with teaching assistants and KS1 colleagues

  • Communicate regularly with parents and carers regarding pupil progress

  • Contribute to staff meetings, CPD sessions, and whole-school initiatives

  • Ensure safeguarding and child protection policies are followed at all times

Who We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate will:

  • Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)

  • Have experience teaching in Key Stage 1

  • Demonstrate strong classroom management and organisational skills

  • Be nurturing, enthusiastic, and adaptable

  • Show a strong understanding of early primary teaching and learning

  • Be reflective and committed to professional development

  • Have a clear commitment to inclusion, safeguarding, and pupil wellbeing

Location
