Job Description

Year 6 Teacher

Aspire People are recruiting for an experienced Year 6 Teacher to join a primary school on a full-time long-term basis from September. The school would ideally like to meet suitable candidates as soon as possible and may offer the opportunity to begin working within the school before the end of the current academic year.

Due to the importance of SATs preparation and the demands of Year 6, the school has specified they are looking for an experienced teacher rather than an ECT for this role.

The Role Will Include:
Full teaching responsibilities within a Year 6 class
Delivering high-quality lessons across the Upper KS2 curriculum
Preparing pupils for SATs and secondary school transition
Supporting attainment, confidence, and pupil wellbeing
Monitoring and assessing progress effectively
Maintaining strong classroom behaviour and routines
Working closely with the KS2 team and leadership staff

The school is open to discussing alternative KS2 year groups depending on the successful candidate's experience and strengths; however, experience within Upper KS2 is highly desirable.

The Ideal Candidate:
Holds Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Has recent experience teaching within KS2 in a UK primary school
Confident preparing pupils for end-of-year expectations
Strong understanding of the KS2 curriculum and assessment
Excellent classroom management skills
Positive, committed, and professional approach

Why Work with Aspire People:
Competitive daily rates
Long-term full-time opportunity
Supportive school environment
Dedicated consultant support throughout the placement
Potential opportunity to start before September

The school is looking to arrange interviews ASAP and is keen to appoint the right teacher quickly.
