We are seeking an enthusiastic, dedicated and experienced Nursery Teacher who is passionate about giving children the very best start to their educational journey.

At Chase Bridge, we believe the early years are fundamental in shaping children’s confidence, curiosity and lifelong love of learning.

• understands them as individuals and listens to everyone;
• makes learning enjoyable;
• boosts their confidence;
• encourages them and is approachable; and

If you are an experienced Nursery Teacher who shares our vision and would love to make a lasting difference at the very start of children’s school lives, we would be delighted to hear from you.
