Summary

Are you a teacher who refuses to settle for "standard" and instead strives for "extraordinary" in every lesson you plan?

Do you excel at using data as a storytelling tool to identify precisely where a child needs support to soar?

Can you lead a classroom with a perfect balance of academic rigour and genuine, infectious enthusiasm for learning?

At Randstad Sheffield, we pride ourselves on being more than just a recruitment agency; we are your local career advocates.

This is an opportunity to join a high-achieving, vibrant primary school situated within easy reach of Sheffield and the surrounding South Yorkshire areas. The school is a hub of innovation, where teachers are encouraged to step away from "off-the-shelf" planning in favour of a curriculum that reflects the interests and backgrounds of their pupils. With a focus on professional autonomy and a robust mentorship programme, this school is the ideal place for a practitioner who is serious about their own career progression.

  • Collaborative Planning: Participating in cross-phase planning sessions to ensure a seamless educational journey for all pupils.

  • Parental Partnership: Building strong, professional relationships with families through regular updates and inclusive consultation evenings.

Requirements
  • Certification: Must hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and be registered with the Teaching Regulation Agency.

  • Expertise: A deep and up-to-date understanding of the National Curriculum and current primary assessment frameworks.

  • Evidence of Impact: A proven track record of consistently "Good" or "Outstanding" teaching practice with measurable results in pupil progress.

  • Subject Specialism: A willingness to take on subject leadership and drive standards across the school in a specific curriculum area.

  • Organisational Skills: Exceptional time management and the ability to balance planning, marking, and administrative duties effectively.

  • Vetting: Must hold an Enhanced DBS check on the Update Service or be prepared to undergo a new check.

Randstad Benefits
  • Referral Scheme: Earn £300 in Love2Shop vouchers for every teacher you refer to our Sheffield office.

  • Development: Access to exclusive leadership and specialist teaching CPD courses to enhance your CV.

  • Flexibility: Opportunities for both permanent contracts and long-term roles to suit your current lifestyle.

  • Local Knowledge: Guidance from a specialist consultant who knows the Sheffield and South Yorkshire school networks inside out.
