Job description

Overview

We are seeking a Key Stage Two teacher to begin work at a school in Hitchin from January 2025. The school is in need of cover for the deputy head, who is currently in class three days per week. They are looking to reduce this to either one day per week, or ideally none, allowing the deputy to take on other aspects that the school requires. Days can be flexible for an outstanding candidate, but they should know that they will be worked hard at the school. The school has recently been visited by Ofsted and are in need of improving their standards as a whole. They ideally would like to appoint somebody who has experience in doing this, but will ultimately take the candidate who best fits the school at interview stage.

Responsibilities

• Deliver Key Stage Two teaching with a focus on maintaining and improving pupil progress.
• Provide cover for the deputy head as required, while ensuring continuity of teaching and learning.
• Support school improvement initiatives and align practice with Ofsted expectations.
• Collaborate with senior leadership to support the school's development priorities.

Qualifications

• Experience teaching Key Stage Two.
• Ability to contribute to improving standards and supporting school improvement efforts.

Notes: Ofsted has recently visited; the school is seeking to raise overall standards. The successful candidate will be chosen based on fit at interview.
