The school is looking for someone who will bring energy, warmth and enthusiasm to their Reception classroom. Someone who understands that the early years are about so much more than learning — they are about building confidence, nurturing independence and helping children discover the world around them.

- QTS or an equivalent teaching qualification
- A genuine passion for Early Years and child development
- Previous Reception or EYFS experience (preferred)
- Experience supporting children with SEMH needs (desirable)
- A creative, enthusiastic and nurturing approach
- The ability to inspire, engage and motivate young learners
- Excellent classroom management and communication skills
ECTs are warmly welcomed to apply! While experience is preferred, the school is looking for someone with the passion, enthusiasm and drive to make their mark.
In return, the school offers:
- A full-time Reception Teacher position from September
- Salary of MPS1–UPS3, depending on experience
- A supportive and welcoming 2-form entry school
- A collaborative and friendly staff team
- A nurturing and inclusive school environment
