Key Stage Two Maternity Cover for Year 6 - Term 3 Start - 4th January 2019

We are looking for a dynamic, motivated, enthusiastic and positive teacher who wants to be part of a developing team from Friday 4th January on a fixed term contract.

Barming Primary School had a new leadership team in September 2016 and has been  working incredibly hard to drive change.

We want a school that has a curriculum that is fun and exciting for the children and staff.  A curriculum that uses the outdoor learning environment and encourages enquiring minds.  We want a teacher who thinks outside of the box, developing new and inspirational ways to bring the curriculum to life!  

We think carefully about all our staff and are continually thinking of new ways to develop ways of reducing workload. We even have Wellbeing buddies!

The ideal candidate will start on 4th January 2019 (This will give the candidate time to meet with the previous class teacher for a handover).

The children at Barming Primary School are eager to learn in an environment, which is rich in space!

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed and encouraged. 

Please contact the school office to arrange an appointment with Mr Laker (Head of School).

Closing date and Short Listing: Monday 8th  October 9am
