KS1 Teacher

Role: Key Stage 1 Teacher (Full-Time)

Location: Lichfield & Surrounding Areas

Salary: £140 - £233 Per Day

Contract: Fixed Term

The early years of school are where the magic happens. We are looking for an enthusiastic, creative, and patient KS1 Teacher to join a friendly primary school in Tamworth. Whether you're turning phonics into an adventure or making basic addition feel like a game, we want a teacher who knows how to keep 5-to-7-year-olds curious and engaged.

This is a full-time, temporary role for a professional who loves the "lightbulb moments" that come with teaching Year 1 and Year 2.

• Competitive Pay: £140 - £233 per day, strictly adhered to MPS/UPS scales and paid weekly.

• Creative Freedom: A supportive environment where your "big ideas" for the classroom are encouraged.

• Professional Growth: Access to a robust CPD program focusing on early childhood development and phonics.

• Community Spirit: Join a collaborative staff room that values teamwork and shared resources over "silos."

We want to hear from you if you:

• Are Qualified: You hold QTS (Early Career Teachers / ECTs are very welcome!).

• Are a Phonics Pro: You have experience delivering phonics programs (such as Read Write Inc. or Little Wandle).

• Are Engaging: You have the energy and classroom management skills to keep a KS1 class focused and happy.

• Are Safe: You are 100% committed to safeguarding and the holistic welfare of every child.

• Plan & Deliver: Create high-quality, play-infused lessons that meet the National Curriculum standards for KS1.

• Nurture: Foster a positive, inclusive classroom environment where children feel brave enough to try new things.

• Assess: Use formative assessment to track early reading, writing, and maths progress, ensuring no child falls behind.

• Partner: Work closely with parents and Teaching Assistants to support each child's unique learning journey.

If you have the passion to make the first years of school the best years of school, Robbie is ready to hear from you!
