Class Teacher Key Stage One

What skills and experience we're looking for

St Michael’s Church of England Primary School. This is an exciting opportunity to join a vibrant and welcoming community rooted in Christian faith and dedicated to the academic, personal, and spiritual flourishing of every child.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher to join our team, someone who is committed to upholding and actively promoting our Christian ethos.

• Inspires and motivates children to develop a love of learning.

• Embodies our school’s values of Love, Serve, Grow, promoting a culture of humility, gentleness, and compassion.
• Works collaboratively with colleagues, families, and the wider school community.
• Is reflective, proactive, and committed to their own professional development.
• Experience or commitment to developing English writing is desirable but not essential.

What the school offers its staff

In return, we offer

• A warm and supportive school community with a strong team ethos.
• Enthusiastic, happy children who are eager to learn.
• A well-structured ECT induction programme with high-quality mentoring and professional development.
• A commitment to staff well-being and career development.
• The opportunity to be part of a school that values both academic excellence and the spiritual and moral development of every child.

This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a school where values and faith guide our work, and where every child is encouraged to flourish. If you share our vision and are ready to contribute to our journey, we would love to hear from you.
