What you’ll do:
Support the class teacher to deliver high-quality EYFS provision.

The School:
An ‘Outstanding’ primary with a nurturing EYFS team, excellent resources and well-established routines. You’ll receive practical coaching and regular feedback so you can make impact quickly and build a strong foundation for ITT.
How to Apply
Send your CV and include your availability, DBS status, and two referees if possible. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a brief call and an in-school interview/observation. Early applications are encouraged, as the school may appoint before the closing date.
