I am working in partnership with a welcoming and community-focused primary school in Shropshire, seeking a dedicated Year 3/4 Teacher to join their team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a friendly and supportive school, initially for two-terms.  For the right candidate, there is the potential for the position to become permanent, offering the opportunity to build a long-term future within the school, should both parties wish to continue the relationship beyond the initial placement.

The successful candidate will teach a mixed Year 3/4 class of 25 pupils, supported by a full-time HLTA and additional Teaching Assistant support for 4 pupils with EHCPs. The school is committed to ensuring that both staff and pupils have the support they need to succeed, creating an environment where teachers can focus on delivering high-quality learning experiences.

The school prides itself on providing a nurturing and inclusive environment where children are encouraged to develop academically, socially and emotionally. Staff work collaboratively to create engaging learning experiences that inspire confidence, resilience and a love of learning.

The successful Year 3/4 Teacher will:

• Plan and deliver engaging and inspiring lessons that motivate pupils to achieve their best.
• Create a positive and inclusive classroom environment where every child feels valued.
• Differentiate effectively to meet the needs of all learners.
• Work collaboratively with support staff to maximise pupil outcomes.
• Build positive relationships with pupils, parents and colleagues.
• Contribute to the wider life of the school community.
• Maintain high expectations for achievement, behaviour and personal development.

I am looking for a teacher who:

• Holds Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
• Has experience teaching within Key Stage 2.
• Demonstrates high expectations for both achievement and behaviour.
• Is organised, proactive and enthusiastic.
• Has strong classroom management skills.
• Works effectively as part of a team.
• Is committed to ensuring every child reaches their full potential.
• Brings creativity, energy and a positive mindset to the classroom.

• A supportive and welcoming leadership team.
• A well-supported mixed Year 3/4 class with just 25 pupils.
• A full-time HLTA working within the classroom.
• Additional Teaching Assistant support for pupils with EHCPs.
• Well-behaved, enthusiastic children who enjoy learning.
• A collaborative and friendly staff team.
• Opportunities for continued professional development.
• A positive school culture where staff wellbeing is valued.
• The potential for a permanent appointment following the initial two-term contract.

If you are an enthusiastic and motivated teacher looking for your next Key Stage 2 opportunity within a supportive and welcoming primary school, I would love to hear from you.
