Class Teacher

The governors of Shrubland Street Primary School seek an excellent class teacher to join their friendly, hardworking and successful school.

Shrubland Street Primary School is a very popular and thriving school. It is a wonderful place to teach in and an inspirational place to be a pupil in. The school consists of over 200 enthusiastic, energetic and well behaved children, who are always up for a challenge and display a real ‘love of learning’.

The teachers, highly praised by OFSTED in 2014 for their teaching, are a professional and hardworking team who are excellently supported by our invaluable teaching assistants. Our unique curriculum approach which involves teachers becoming ‘specialists’ within the school ensures they can promote and develop their subject passion with total support from the school.
