Advert

We are looking for a strong and adaptable teacher to become part of our school team.  The role is twofold; one day job sharing with an experienced teacher and the other, covering leadership release time for our Assistant Headteacher.

The successful candidate will need to: -

• Enjoy working as part of a team
• Be able to work with children of all ages, planning for and providing effective strategies to support pupils of all abilities, including those with additional needs.
• Demonstrate that they are a committed and creative teacher who uses their skills and knowledge to inspire and make children’s learning relevant and fun!
• Be enthusiastic, flexible and enjoy the surprises that teaching brings!
• Proactively contribute to progress meetings and contribute towards ensuring the best provision for our children

In return we can offer a good school (Ofsted October ’21), fabulous children and a great staff team! We are supportive and encourage development.

For many of our pupils, English is their second or third language so an understanding of language development for EAL pupils and cultural diversity would be of benefit, but in no way essential.  We also serve a large Service community, so mobility is high.  

The post is offered on a fixed term basis for from September 2026 to August 2027 with the possibility of this being extended.    

We encourage you to visit the school before you apply so you can get a feel for our very special ethos and meet us all.

If this sounds like a job you would enjoy, please come and visit and find out a little bit more about us. We look forward to meeting you.

Guston Church of England Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. All staff are expected to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be required to follow the relevant safeguarding procedures, including Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSiE) guidance, and will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references.

We encourage early applications and reserve the right to close this vacancy early if a suitable candidate is found.
