Are you an Early Years Teacher looking for your next Nursery or Reception role in Bexley? Tradewind Recruitment is looking to hear from qualified teachers interested in longer-term class teaching, maternity cover or a regular part-time timetable in a primary school.

We'd like to hear from teachers who understand how much children learn through play, conversation and well-established routines. You'll be confident noticing what children are ready to learn next and using that to shape the activities, resources and adult support available in the classroom.

What the work can involve

• Planning across the EYFS curriculum and balancing focused teaching with purposeful child-initiated play.

• Using observations and assessment to plan next steps for individuals and groups.

• Teaching early language, phonics and maths in ways that are accessible to children at different stages.

• Working with support staff to organise the learning environment and build consistent routines.

• Building relationships with families and keeping them informed about their children's progress.

What we're looking for

You'll need Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and experience teaching Nursery or Reception, including through teacher training. We welcome applications from Early Career Teachers with recent EYFS experience and experienced teachers looking for their next Early Years role. If you've taught a particular phonics programme, include it in your application.

Apply now with your CV, your preferred year group and your earliest start date. We'll discuss the type of school, working pattern and level of class responsibility you're looking for. All assignments are subject to satisfactory safeguarding checks and references.
