What skills and experience we're looking for
Are you an inspiring educator with a passion for sparking curiosity in young learners? This is a pivotal role where you will lay the foundations for lifelong learning, ensuring our children thrive in a knowledge-rich, nurturing, and creative environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Phonics & Literacy: Lead the delivery of systematic synthetic phonics (SSP), ensuring pupils are well-prepared for the Phonics Screening Check and develop a genuine love for reading.
• Strategic Planning: Collaborate with Year Group partners and Subject Leaders to implement a creative, sequenced curriculum that builds on EYFS foundations.
• Inclusion & Safeguarding: Maintain a culture where the child always comes first, following all statutory requirements (KCSIE) and tailoring support for SEND and EAL pupils.
• Formative Assessment: Proficiently use data to track pupil performance, identifying gaps early and implementing effective interventions to ensure no child is left behind.
• Parental Partnership: Build strong, transparent relationships with parents and carers to support the home-school learning link.
About You
You should be a reflective practitioner with a deep commitment to social equity and the belief that every child, regardless of their starting point, can achieve excellence.
Requirements
• Qualifications: Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a Degree/PGCE are essential.
• Experience: Proven success in teaching within a Primary setting (KS1 experience preferred, though ECTs with strong placements are encouraged to apply).

• Technical Skills: Strong understanding of the KS1 National Curriculum and experience in using assessment data to drive classroom impact.
• Communication: Exceptional interpersonal skills, with the ability to work collaboratively within a Key Stage team and communicate effectively with the wider school community.
