Are you an inspirational teacher looking to work within a team of passionate and committed teachers and leaders, serving motivated, respectful and well-behaved children? Queenborough School & Nursery is looking to appoint an experienced teacher to initially cover a period of maternity leave from November 2025 until August 2026, for PPA cover, 2 or 3 days per week.
At our most recent inspection in July 2023, Ofsted found, 'Staff, including those new to their careers, feel highly valued and supported. They know that leaders consider their well-being and workload and that there is a strong culture of mutual support and teamwork. Staff value the opportunities they receive to develop, excel and become effective leaders.'
We are looking for someone who:
1. Has the highest aspirations for themselves and the children they teach;
2. Is committed to furthering their own professional development;
3. Is passionate in shaping and supporting the whole child;
4. Can work as part of a team;
5. Is committed to the safety and welfare of all children;
6. Is approachable, friendly and has excellent communication skills.
In return, we can offer:
7. Investment in you, your teaching craft and your career opportunities;
8. A happy and vibrant working ethos;
9. Motivated, polite and well-behaved children with a love for learning;
10. A team of motivated, talented and passionate staff;
11. An inspirational and engaging curriculum;
12. Leaders who understand and promote staff well-being;
13. Excellent opportiunities for career development and continued professional development.
While this is a temporary position to cover a period of maternity leave, the school has previously employed a number of maternity cover teachers on a permanent basis at the end of their contract and a successful candidate would be automatically shortlisted for any future full time posts.
