Duncombe Primary School is looking to appoint two highly skilled class teachers. Are you a dedicated and energetic individual? Are you creative, innovative, with a strong commitment to inclusion and the ability to inspire and motivate pupils? We are looking to appoint highly skilled class teachers, who are committed to high standards of achievement and behaviour for all children.  Experience in an inner-city setting is desirable, as is the ability to teach in KS1 or KS2. 

Duncombe is a very happy, thriving school; graded as a ‘good’ school by Ofsted in November 2017. The children are at the heart of everything that we do and every decision that we make. The school's n leadership team, governing body and staff team work collegially. We have extremely high expectations for the children and work every day to ensure that our provision is the best it can be.  As a teacher at Duncombe, you will work hard to bridge the gap between advantage and disadvantage and ensure that every child reaches their full potential.

Duncombe’s ethos is ASPIRE, we want to encourage ambition, self-esteem, perseverance, independence, resilience and enthusiasm as characteristics in all our children. We believe that these soft-skills, combined with a rigorous, knowledge-based curriculum, will prepare our children for secondary school and beyond. 

We understand that teaching is a challenging career and we have a strong commitment to staff well-being at Duncombe. As an outward facing school, we know how important staff development is and have well-established connections with other local Islington schools.  

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed and you should contact the school office, (success@duncombeprimary.co.uk or 02072725620) to make an appointment for a tour.
