KS 2 Classroom Teacher Pyrford CofE Primary School
Are you an ambitious, passionate teacher who is ready to make a real difference? We are offering a wonderful opportunity to become an integral part of our exceptional school community.
Pyrford CofE Primary School is seeking to appoint an outstanding KS2 classroom teacher who has a genuine passion for creating lifelong learners, a commitment to inclusion and equality, and high expectations of themselves and every child in their care.
Whether you are an ECT looking for the perfect start to your career, or an experienced teacher ready for your next step, Pyrford could be the school for you. This position is offered at MPS and, for the right candidate, there is the possibility of additional responsibilities to support anyone who aspires to senior leadership in the future. This position is not tied to a specific year group — we believe in finding the right person for our school first, and working with them to identify the best fit. Experience across both Key Stages is preferable.
About Our School
Pyrford is an Outstanding school set in a beautiful village within the parish of Wisley with Pyrford, situated next to the Church of the Good Shepherd, with whom we have very close links. We are a school that promotes the academic and personal growth of all our pupils in a nurturing and inspiring environment, underpinned by our Christian values of Love, Resilience, Wisdom and Respect.
We have a strong ethos of inclusion and are passionate about staff wellbeing and work-life balance. We are working hard to become a more diverse organisation and warmly welcome applications from everyone — we would particularly encourage applications from Black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in our Trust. We always appoint on merit.
Why Join Us?
You will work alongside outstanding colleagues with regular opportunities to observe and share practice. You will benefit from a tailored professional development programme that supports your growth and career progression, with the possibility of additional responsibilities for anyone who aspires to senior leadership in the future. Our school was newly built less than ten years ago with extensive, beautiful grounds. We are passionate about delivering an engaging, active curriculum that gives every child the opportunity to thrive. Above all, you will be joining a warm, energetic and supportive team who are committed to growing great minds together.

As part of this Trust, you will have access to outstanding professional development and the benefit of working within a community of schools that share common values and goals — because we know that schools are better when they work together.
Potential candidates are warmly invited to visit the school — we would love to meet you and show you around. Please call or email the school to request a visit.
