Year 2 is the culmination of KS1 - and the teacher who leads it shapes what comes next. We are working with a well-regarded primary school in Kingston seeking a confident and dedicated Year 2 Teacher to join their Key Stage 1 team. This is a year of real importance - children consolidate everything they have learned in KS1 and are assessed through statutory teacher assessments before they move into the broader demands of KS2.

About the role

As Year 2 Teacher, you will lead your class through the final year of Key Stage 1 with high expectations, strong teaching and a clear focus on pupil outcomes. You will plan and deliver lessons across all National Curriculum subjects, with particular expertise in phonics, early reading and KS1 mathematics.

End-of-year teacher assessments are a key feature of Year 2, and you will approach moderation and assessment with confidence and professionalism. Your ability to use ongoing assessment data to track pupil progress and close gaps throughout the year will be central to what you bring to this role.

The school has shared year group planning to keep workload manageable, a strong SENCO and teaching assistants in place across KS1. Leadership is approachable and genuinely supportive, and there is a real culture of professional collaboration here.

What we are looking for

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) - essential
• Experience teaching Year 2 or KS1 with strong knowledge of end-of-KS1 assessment
• Confident with phonics, early reading and KS1 mathematics teaching
• Skilled at using assessment data to track progress and inform planning
• Experience differentiating for SEND and EAL learners
• Strong communication with parents and professional partners
• A collaborative team player with a positive, determined approach
