Are you a KS2 teacher looking for a long-term placement that goes beyond day-to-day supply?

Step into a Year 6 teaching role in Brighton where you can make a real impact, build lasting relationships, and guide pupils through a pivotal stage in their learning. This is your chance to provide stability, continuity, and professional fulfilment while developing your teaching skills.

In a close-knit primary school with less than 200 pupils, you’ll quickly form meaningful connections with children, staff, and families. The school’s supportive leadership fosters a positive, values-driven environment, giving you the confidence and freedom to lead your classroom effectively.

You’ll plan and deliver full units of work, assess pupil progress, and provide timely feedback, ensuring learners achieve their potential. This role also allows you to refine your Upper Key Stage 2 teaching skills and manage a class fully, all while enjoying the stability of consistent hours and a predictable routine. The diverse and engaged pupil population makes each day inspiring, and the central Brighton location offers convenience and access to city amenities.

Who we’re looking for

• Qualified teacher status (QTS) with completed ECT/NQT induction
• Recent experience teaching Key Stage 2

Why take this role

• A long-term, temporary KS2 placement with predictable hours
• Supportive leadership and a friendly, collaborative team
• Opportunities to develop professionally while making a tangible difference
• Pupils who are motivated, engaged, and ready to learn

About the school

This C of E Primary in Brighton is a small, diverse, church-school with a strong Christian ethos and committed leadership. Its SIAMS inspection highlights how its Christian vision meaningfully shapes school life, worship and community. Academically, students are making particularly strong progress in reading and maths, though there’s room to grow in pushing more pupils to greater depth (especially in writing).

If you’re ready to make a real difference in Year 6, gain valuable KS2 experience, and work in a supportive, values-driven school environment, this role is for you.
