Our Reception Class children need a teacher, and our teachers need a colleague!

Would you like to work in a school where the children are at the heart of learning and teaching? We have a vacancy for a full time – temporary Reception Class Teacher to cover maternity leave from January to December 2022.

We thrive on openness and honesty at Greatstone. We foster an environment that is a happy place for both children and grown-ups to work. We laugh a lot but know when to be serious. We care a lot, sometimes too much. We never do anything for the sake of ticking boxes but we always do things for the sake of the young people in our care.

Greatstone Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The successful candidate will be subject to pre-employment checks including an enhanced DBS check, references and right to work in the UK.

If you would like to dip your toe in … yes we are by the sea too … you are warmly invited to contact the Head of School, Mrs Jaclyn Kay, to discuss this vacancy.
