Y5/6 Teacher | Runcorn
Full-Time | January-July 2026 | £140-£200 per day
A supportive primary school in Runcorn is looking to appoint a Y5/6 Teacher from January 2026 to the end of the academic year. This is an excellent opportunity to join a school with a warm, community-focused atmosphere where staff work closely together and children are encouraged to thrive academically and personally.
About the Role
The successful teacher will take full responsibility for a mixed Year 5/6 class, delivering engaging, well-paced lessons that help pupils make strong progress in the run-up to SATs. You will nurture children's confidence, encourage curiosity and provide a classroom environment where every learner feels safe, included and supported.
This post is ideal for a confident practitioner-whether experienced or newly qualified-who loves upper KS2 and wants to play a key part in pupils' final year of primary education.
What You'll Be Doing:
Teaching a Year 5/6 class full-time and ensuring high-quality learning each day
Planning purposeful, structured lessons that challenge and support all pupils
Tracking progress and adapting teaching to meet individual needs
Building strong relationships with pupils, families and colleagues
Contributing positively to the school's caring ethos and wider school life
What We're Looking For:
QTS and a genuine passion for primary education
A strong understanding of KS2 expectations, especially English and Maths
The ability to motivate, encourage and inspire pupils of varying abilities
Good behaviour management and confident classroom presence
Strong organisation and communication skills
Experience in KS2 is beneficial, but the school is equally open to candidates from other primary phases who bring enthusiasm, commitment and a willingness to learn.
Visits to the school can be arranged and are highly encouraged.
If you're ready to make a meaningful impact in a supportive Runcorn primary school, we'd love to hear from you.
