The school provides a welcoming community school where children are encouraged to be curious, confident and respectful. A nurturing approach, clear routines and strong relationships help pupils feel safe, included and ready to learn.

The school is looking for a dedicated KS2 Teacher to support Key Stage 2 pupils. The successful candidate will deliver reading, writing, mathematics and a broad curriculum that develops knowledge, independence and resilience, maintain clear expectations and work closely with colleagues to ensure children receive consistent, high-quality support. Opportunities may be available on a day-to-day, short-term or long-term basis, depending on school requirements.

The school will consider ECTs for teaching opportunities where the role and experience are a suitable match.

This opportunity may suit candidates seeking day-to-day, short-term or longer-term work. Working patterns and year-group placements will depend on the needs of the school and will be discussed before each placement.

• Plan, deliver and assess high-quality lessons across the KS2 curriculum.
• Use assessment to monitor progress, address misconceptions and inform next steps.
• Adapt learning and resources to support pupils with different abilities and SEND.

• Maintain a safe, purposeful classroom where pupils are motivated to achieve.

• Relevant KS2 teaching experience, ideally within a mainstream primary setting.
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
• Confident behaviour and classroom management skills.
• The ability to plan and deliver engaging lessons across the KS2 curriculum.
• A flexible approach to supporting pupils with SEND and differing abilities.
• Strong organisational, communication and teamwork skills.
• A strong reference from a recent school placement or employer.

Working as a KS2 Teacher for Flourish Education, you will receive excellent benefits, including:

• A competitive salary of up to £240.72 per day (M1–M6), paid to scale depending on experience
• Holiday pay – PAYE candidates accrue 12.07% of their daily rate into a holiday pot.
• Pension contributions.
• KCSIE-compliant Safeguarding and Prevent Duty training, including modules covering legislation, FGM and abuse awareness.
• Regular contact and support throughout the registration process and while on placement.
• Your own dedicated consultant, who will take the time to get to know you and help find placements where you can thrive.
