A brilliant, well‑led primary school is looking for a confident, adaptable Qualified Teacher to take on a split timetable: Year 1 in the mornings and Year 5 in the afternoons.

• Deliver engaging lessons using provided planning
• Maintain strong behaviour management across both phases
• Work closely with EYFS/KS1 and KS2 teams to ensure consistency
• Build positive relationships with pupils, staff and parents

About You

What the School Offers

• Supportive leadership and friendly staff
• Clear planning and well‑structured curriculum
• A varied role with whole‑school impact
