Further details about the role
Primary Teacher
MPS/UPS
0.4 Fixed Term Contract
We are looking for an enthusiastic practitioner who enjoys the buzz of teaching and enjoys a varied timetable. This is a unique role to teach across a range of subjects in both KS2 and 3. We understand that the middle school system will mean that a suitable applicant may need training in their least specialised key stage. The ability to teach English, Maths and Humanities is preferable but experience in other subjects is also advantageous. We have specialist teachers for Music, Art, Pe and DT but these may also need to be delivered depending on the responsibilities of teachers in these subjects. This really is a job for somebody to experience the full teaching spectrum and may suit a key stage specialist with a passion for teaching, or a KS2 teacher who would like to expand out into KS3.
