We are looking to appoint a passionate, organised and aspirational full-time class teacher to join our thriving school community in January 2026, initially until December 2026.
Kingsbridge Primary is a vibrant, two-form entry school with around 340 pupils. Our children are enthusiastic learners who behave well and thrive in our positive, nurturing environment. In Key Stage One, we champion play and continuous provision, ensuring that our pupils experience a smooth transition from the Early Years and continue to develop as confident, independent learners. We are proud that our Early Years team was recognised nationally last year with a Pearson Bronze Award - a reflection of the creativity, expertise and dedication that runs throughout our school.
We are also a Talk for Writing Showcase School and a Steplab Hub School, giving our staff the opportunity to be part of nationally recognised approaches to teaching and professional development. These designations reflect our strong culture of coaching and collaboration, providing colleagues with valuable opportunities to grow in their practice and contribute to wider educational improvement.
Our dedicated team of teachers is supported by skilled and committed teaching assistants, and we work in close partnership with our wider community and schools across our Multi-Academy Trust.

Passionate about children's learning and committed to helping every child succeed?
Organised, reflective, and determined to achieve high standards?
Keen to contribute to a dynamic, forward-thinking and inclusive school?
Inspirational in your practice and enthusiastic about ongoing development?
Ready to embrace our core values of Community, Aspiration, Respect and Equity?

A curriculum in KS1 that champions play and continuous provision
Opportunities to develop your practice through our work as a Talk for Writing Showcase School and Steplab Hub School
A strong culture of professional learning and coaching, with access to high-quality training and mentoring
