Do you love to instill a sense of adventure and exploration into learning? 

Sussex Road Primary School is an exciting place to learn and teach.  The combination of our Forest School, advanced curriculum development and innovative approaches ensure high levels of engagement and enthusiasm.  With a healthy work/life balance being so crucial, come and join a team that continually strives to reduce workload and where happiness is top of the agenda.  To support you we provide high-spec teacher laptops, teacher iPads, the freedom to take your PPA time from home (or the beach!) and personalised career development ensuring your ambitions are realised.

Our ethos - QUESTION, CHALLENGE, EXPLORE - is integral to all we do.  Come and be that teacher that a child never forgets.

We encourage you to visit us to find out more about our school and to provide an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have.  See what we get up to on Twitter @sussexroad.  Our most recent, very successful, OFSTED report (November 2021) can be viewed on our website.  

We welcome applications from ECTs and experienced teachers. This is a full-time, maternity post for 1 year.  There is a strong likelihood a permanent role will become available.  It may be possible to accommodate a part-time role; please call the school to discuss this further.

The school reseves the right to interview candidates before the closing date for this post.
