  • Implement effective classroom management strategies that foster mutual respect.

  • Use data-driven insights to identify learning gaps and provide targeted interventions.

  • Lead classroom support staff to ensure every child receives the help they need.

  • Engage with the local Blackburn community through parents' evenings and school events.

  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

  • Proven experience teaching within Key Stage 2.

  • Strong subject knowledge across core and foundation subjects.

  • Ability to use "Assessment for Learning" to drive student outcomes.

  • Excellent communication, organisational, and interpersonal skills.
