This is a full-time contract role for one term initially, with the potential to be extended beyond the initial contract period for the right candidate.

The Early Years Teacher will play a vital role in both the pastoral care and early development of pupils, supporting children at a crucial stage in their learning journey. Pupils benefit from a nurturing and stimulating environment where they develop strong early foundations and make excellent progress.

The school promotes a child-centred approach to learning and encourages staff to deliver creative, engaging, and developmentally appropriate experiences that inspire curiosity, confidence, and a love of learning.

* Foster a safe, nurturing, and inclusive learning environment
* Contribute positively to the wider life of the school community

The School:

* Welcoming and supportive school environment
* Strong and collaborative Early Years team
* Excellent resources to support teaching and learning
* Happy, well-behaved, and engaged pupils
* A positive and professional working culture
* Supportive leadership team committed to staff development
* Focus on providing high-quality early years education and care

The school is seeking a Nursery Class Teacher who:

* Has experience within Early Years and/or Nursery settings
* Has high expectations and strong classroom practice
* Is child-centred and passionate about early years education
* Demonstrates creativity and confidence in delivering engaging, play-based learning
* Can build positive relationships with pupils, parents, and colleagues

Applications are welcomed from teachers with a range of experience, including both experienced practitioners and those earlier in their teaching careers.
