Spread your wings and fly high!
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a class teacher at our happy, thriving and ambitious school where staff wellbeing is a priority. You may already have experience of working in a primary classroom, be looking for a new opportunity or be seeking your first teaching role. We have an excellent track record in supporting ECTs.
“My NQT year at Burpham was a rewarding journey and I felt supported and valued throughout.”
“A friendly and supportive environment with plenty of opportunities to develop your teaching practice and grow as a professional.”
We aspire to help every child in our care to develop as a whole person, to become confident, happy, independent, creative and adaptable, to love learning and to achieve more than they ever thought possible. Our experienced and well-established teaching team has high expectations and aspirations for all our pupils and we never stop trying to find new ways of promoting learning and making improvements to our school.
If you…
- believe that all children have limitless potential
- dislike the language of fixed ability and the notion of setting
- value research and evidence to support your teaching and learning
- think marking is overrated and feedback comes in many forms
- understand that data is just part of the bigger picture
and would like to work with like-minded colleagues in a forward thinking school, then we can offer you:
- enthusiastic, happy and confident children who are polite and well behaved
- excellent opportunities for professional development and a genuine commitment to staff wellbeing
- a positive environment where a sense of humour is valued!
