Richmond, Greater London

A Lower Key Stage 2 Role Where You Can Make a Real Impact

We are looking to appoint a motivated and confident Year 3 Teacher to join a well-regarded primary school in Richmond, starting as soon as possible. This role offers an excellent opportunity to work with pupils at the beginning of Key Stage 2, supporting them as they develop independence, resilience, and a deeper understanding of core subjects.

Year 3 is a vital transition year, and the school is seeking a teacher who understands the importance of maintaining a nurturing approach while introducing greater structure and academic challenge. You will be responsible for delivering engaging, well-sequenced lessons that build on pupils’ Key Stage 1 foundations and prepare them for the expectations of KS2.

The school has a strong reputation for inclusive practice, supportive leadership, and a positive working environment. Staff are encouraged to collaborate, share ideas, and continually develop their practice through reflection and professional development.

Your Role in the School

As the Year 3 Teacher, you will take full responsibility for your class, planning and delivering lessons across the curriculum while adapting teaching to meet the needs of all learners. You will work closely with teaching assistants and fellow KS2 teachers to ensure consistency and progression across the phase.

You will also play a key role in supporting pupils’ social and emotional development, helping them build confidence, independence, and positive learning behaviours.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan and deliver high-quality lessons aligned with the Year 3 curriculum

  • Use assessment effectively to monitor progress and inform planning

  • Differentiate learning to support pupils of varying abilities, including SEND and EAL

  • Create a calm, structured, and inclusive classroom environment

  • Promote positive behaviour and high expectations for learning

  • Work collaboratively with teaching assistants and KS2 colleagues

  • Communicate clearly with parents and carers about pupil progress

  • Contribute to staff meetings, planning sessions, and CPD opportunities

  • Support pupils in developing independence and responsibility for their learning

Who We’re Looking For

The successful candidate will be:

  • A qualified teacher with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)

  • Experienced in Key Stage 2, ideally with Year 3 or lower KS2 experience

  • Confident in delivering engaging lessons in literacy, numeracy, and the wider curriculum

  • Organised, reflective, and proactive in their approach to teaching

  • Skilled in classroom management and differentiation

  • Committed to inclusive practice and safeguarding

  • Willing to work collaboratively as part of a supportive team

Early Career Teachers are welcome to apply and will receive mentoring and guidance to support their development.

What the School Offers

  • Supportive and approachable leadership

  • A collaborative and experienced Key Stage 2 team

  • Well-resourced classrooms and structured planning support

  • Ongoing professional development opportunities

  • Pupils who are motivated and engaged in learning

  • A positive school culture that values staff wellbeing

Location

Located in Richmond, the school benefits from excellent transport links, green surroundings, and a strong local community. Staff enjoy working in a calm, professional environment with high standards and a supportive ethos.

How to Apply

To apply, please forward an up-to-date copy of your CV, clearly outlining your qualifications, experience, and suitability for the role.

Start Date: ASAP

This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references. The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment.
