Job description

Mainscale Classroom Teachers (Starting August 2027)

Are you passionate about creating an environment where students truly Belong, Learn, and Thrive?

Kennedy School is seeking dedicated Classroom Teachers to inspire and empower our diverse community of learners. In this role, you will do far more than deliver a curriculum; you will craft meaningful, inclusive learning experiences that challenge and support students of all abilities and backgrounds.

We value educators who are lifelong learners, those who reflect deeply on their practice to enhance student engagement and who have high expectations for every learner. Join us in our commitment to building a vibrant community where every student is known, heard, and empowered to succeed.

Kennedy School is looking to appoint two enthusiastic, dedicated Mainscale Classroom Teachers from August 2027. The positions are on two-year finite contracts, renewable by mutual consent and they are most suitable for teachers early in their career.

Job Overview:

As a Mainscale Classroom Teacher, you will be responsible for planning and delivering world-class education across multiple core subjects to our young learners. You will also be tasked with curating individual learning programmes for our students. Finally, you will also be expected to engage in ESF’s Continuous Professional Development (CPD) programme in order to improve your knowledge to further enhance your skills as a teacher and lifelong learner.

The primary role of the classroom teacher is to design learning experiences that are accessible to all students. Recognising that every child learns differently, the teacher plans with this diversity in mind from the outset, moving away from a "one-size-fits-all" approach.

As a teacher at Kennedy School, you will set high expectations for all learners while providing the flexible options they need to succeed. This involves proactively identifying and removing barriers so that every student can engage deeply and be show their learning in multiple ways. Through constant reflection and a commitment to providing students with choice and voice, you will empower every child to become a motivated, independent, and successful learner.

Beyond the classroom, you will collaborate with the school community to foster an environment where students belong, learn, and thrive. You will also build strong partnerships with parents and caregivers through clear, consistent communication.

As a valued member of our team, you will contribute to the development of school initiatives and help put our shared goals into practice. To ensure the smooth running of the school, all teachers also participate in school-wide activities and additional duties as needed.
