Whichever stage you are at, you will be part of a team that values professional development, reflective practice and joyful, child-centred learning.

Children here are encouraged to explore, problem-solve and express themselves through talk, story and play. Classrooms are calm, purposeful and language-rich, supported by knowledgeable teaching assistants and excellent resources both indoors and outdoors.

We are looking for:

• A qualified Reception or Early Years Teacher with QTS

• A creative, caring teacher who believes in child-centred learning

• Someone who enjoys teamwork and values professional growth

• A reflective practitioner who brings energy, patience and warmth to the classroom

This is a full-time, permanent position from January 2026 or sooner.

If you are ready to join a school where Early Years education truly matters and where children are given the best possible start, we would love to hear from you.
