Job description

The Wensum Trust is seeking an experienced Key Stage 1 Teacher to join Burnham Market Primary and Nursery School. We are looking for an dynamic and nurturing person who will work as part of our school team to help deliver our vision of the school; 'Local Memories, Broadening Horizons.' The role offered is 2 days per week (Monday-Tuesday), on a permanent basis.

This role involves managing our KS1 mixed Y1 and Y2 class and promoting a philosophy of education deeply rooted in our beautiful coastal setting. We require a graduate with QTS and at least two years of experience in KS1 who can bring our curriculum to life, utilising the North Norfolk coast as a living classroom to inspire curiosity and a sense of belonging.

We are a creative team working in the beautiful location of Burnham Market on the North Norfolk coast. We work to our strengths and take every opportunity to do the very best for our children and their families.

We are looking for a teacher who demonstrates:

• A dynamic and enthusiastic approach to developing and shaping children's education and bringing out the best in our pupils.
• A positive attitude towards being part of a vibrant and forward-thinking staff team.
• A strong understanding of SEND and a willingness to adapt to the needs of the children.
• A caring and nurturing person who works with children following our emotion coaching and relational approach.

As part of The Wensum Trust, we believe that our shared duty is to help every child to develop into high achieving, confident, healthy, caring and resilient members of their family and community. We want our schools to be healthy environments where both children and staff can develop and where strong, positive relationships are key. Our school, therefore, practices a relational approach with children, our families and our communities. We are particularly interested in working with people who share Our Qualities; who will work effectively and flexibly as part of a team.

Being a part of The Wensum Trust’s family of schools offers employees unique experiences to work alongside our strategic partners and to collaborate with a wider network of staff. We believe in investing in employees as individuals, by providing training opportunities that help to develop both existing and new skill sets, to encourage career progression at all levels.

We value our staff and are committed to supporting their wellbeing. We have an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which all staff can access 24 hours a day. The EAP provides counselling services, legal information and guidance, musculoskeletal services and online resources such as nutrition diaries, healthy eating plans, personal coaching questionnaires and tools and fitness programmes.

We care about bringing together the most able people, to help us achieve our vision of providing a rounded education for children, quality support for their families and opportunities to enrich our communities.
