NCPS is recruiting for a classroom teacher and we are looking for the best. We educate and care for over 700 wonderful children from a range of backgrounds. We want the best for every single one of them, however when recruiting, we are particularly thinking about our most vulnerable children- the children for whom an amazing teacher can make the difference in their life chances. 

As a large community primary school, we pride ourselves in our relationships between staff, pupils and parents; fostering a warm and friendly environment for all. We have an incredible welfare team, who ensure that all welfare, behavioural needs and SEND are well supported. Our curriculum is exciting, ambitious and engaging- tailored to the needs of our children, and stemming from our curriculum drivers: health, diversity, citizenship and aspirations. All staff who work at Newington, work together- ensuring consistency for children, to ensure that every child excels. 

We strive for the very best for our children, and therefore we look to get the very best from our teachers. This means regular CPD opportunities, a curriculum which continues to evolve and improve, and an understanding that all of our teachers work collaboratively to produce the highest quality lessons for our children. We balance high expectations and excellence in teaching, with a package of support, to ensure that our teachers enjoy a good work life balance. 

This post is to cover maternity leave, and is a one year contract in the first instance. We are looking for the right person, therefore will consider part-time (3 days a week) or full time applicants. 

We may interview applicants at an earlier date then stated, therefore encourage candidates to apply early.

We strongly encourage candidates to come and visit our school before applying. For any interested candidates, please ring our school office, or email headteacher@newington-ramsgate.kent.sch.uk 

We look forward to welcoming you to our school!
