Are you a qualified Class Teacher facing work-life balance challenges?

Or perhaps your current Headteacher and SLT aren’t as supportive as you'd like?

If so, James at EdEx may have the perfect Class Teacher vacancy for you!

We have partnered with this Hackney-based Primary School for the past 12 months, during which we visited twice, meeting the Headteacher (who is fabulous), SLT, support staff, and pupils.

The Headteacher was part of the "founding family" over 8 years ago and has led the school to great success. The school is not only academically excellent but also child-led and pupil-focused. The Headteacher is passionate, supportive, and a true powerhouse.

Key Highlights of the School

• Headteacher, SLT, and staff are friendly and collaborative, working together with a focus on pupils' wellbeing.
• Supportive environment with wellbeing events and flexible support for teachers.
• Marking parties and peer support in marking books.
• Flexible PPA time with dedicated PPA teachers.
• Speech and Language Therapist (4 days/week), School Counsellor (5 days/week), and more.
• Large outdoor spaces, nurture and sensory rooms, well-equipped classrooms.

The Headteacher prefers a flexible teacher who can work across KS1 and KS2, assessing strengths and assigning the best fit for each class.
