Advert

We are searching for a special teacher to join our KS2 team, working as a job share partner to our Senior Teacher in Year 6 whilst her colleague is on Maternity Leave. 

We are looking for an excellent class teacher, to join our hard-working and fun-loving team. Although this is a temporary position, as an expanding school a permanent post may be available at the end of this contract. This is a great opportunity for someone who wishes to develop their career in our successful and popular school, which is at the heart of an active rural community.

If you have:

  • Strong classroom organisational skills
  • A commitment to high standards of achievement
  • A flair for planning and delivering stimulating learning
  • An understanding of how children learn best
  • An ability to make the curriculum exciting and real
  • Experience of working in upper Key Stage 2 (desirable but not essential)

Then we would really like to meet you!

We can offer:

  • Happy children who value learning and achieve high standards
  • A safe, caring learning environment
  • An enthusiastic and supportive staff team
  • On-going CPD programme and highly effective ECT Induction. 

Above all, we are seeking an inspirational and innovative teacher, who expects and achieves high standards, for our children. If this describes you then we would love to hear from you.

Personal visits to the school are warmly encouraged.  Please contact Mrs Karen Furmidge in the school office (office@harrietsham.kent.sch.uk) to make an appointment or for more information.

Interviews will be held conforming to the DfE guidance at the time.

Information about the school

Our Vision Statement:

‘Nurtured we Flourish’

We are a warm, welcoming and inclusive school rooted in our rural community. Like the mustard seed, we grew from tiny beginnings and our branches are now spread wide – providing support and taking our values beyond the school gates. All those in our community feel safe and nurtured - able to flourish and grow academically, spiritually, emotionally and physically to achieve their full God-given potential.

Harrietsham Church of England Primary School is a friendly village school set in beautiful countryside in the heart of the community. We are expanding to 2-form entry and are nearly fully grown! We pride ourselves on the achievements of all of our pupils - we are a school where everyone works together putting children at the heart of everything we do. We welcome pupils and staff of all faiths and none and our vision and values of Love, Forgiveness and Fellowship guide our everyday actions.

Our school building (which dates from 2004 to 2021 when our new extension opened) houses classrooms, smaller learning areas, a well-stocked library and computer room, activity rooms and offices and we have extensive grounds including a nature garden and field with large scale play equipment. Outdoor learning is really important to us. We have supportive parents and an active PTFA and Governing Body. We maintain close links with the church and local community.
