Contract Type: Full-time

We are seeking a committed and enthusiastic Year 4 Teacher to join a welcoming and inclusive primary school in Sutton. This is a fantastic opportunity for a dedicated practitioner to work within Lower Key Stage 2, supporting pupils as they develop confidence, independence, and strong foundations across the curriculum.

The successful candidate will take full responsibility for a Year 4 class, delivering high-quality teaching across all areas of the National Curriculum. You will plan engaging, structured, and creative lessons that inspire curiosity and encourage pupils to take ownership of their learning. High expectations for behaviour, achievement, and presentation are central to this role, alongside a supportive and inclusive classroom approach.

You will use assessment effectively to track progress, identify next steps, and ensure all pupils are supported and challenged appropriately. Differentiation will be key, particularly for pupils with SEND, EAL, or those requiring targeted interventions.

Collaboration is a strong feature of the school’s culture. You will work alongside experienced teachers, support staff, and senior leaders to contribute to curriculum development and whole-school improvement initiatives. Strong relationships with parents and carers are encouraged and supported.
