We are in search of a class teacher with a passion for providing exciting and stimulating learning experiences for our children, someone who puts the children at the heart of all they do.  Initially, this position will be to teach a Year 4 class.  We have a desire to see everyone flourish and that includes you!

You will benefit from working with the most amazing children and supportive parents; a dedicated and friendly staff, a supportive Governing Body and our local churches; our local schools as well as continued support for your professional development. There will be an expectation that you will lead a curriculum subject.

If you feel that you would like to and are able to become part of The Endowed family; that you have the necessary experience to build on and the confidence to suggest changes, ours could be the school for you. Come and join us and ‘let your light shine’.
