We are looking for someone who:

• Has excellent classroom management and communication skills.
• Can confidently deliver engaging lessons across the primary curriculum.
• Is adaptable, organised, and able to build positive relationships with pupils and staff.
• Has high expectations for learning and behaviour.
• Works well as part of a collaborative team.

In return, we offer:

• A welcoming and supportive staff team.
• Well-planned lessons and resources.
• A positive school community with enthusiastic learners.
• An excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience in a rewarding role.

If you are passionate about making a difference and are looking for a flexible teaching opportunity this autumn, we would love to hear from you.
