Class Teacher with English Lead

We are looking for an inspiring class teacher whose passion for English enthuses others. You will join a dedicated team of staff with one goal - providing our amazing children with the very best education through an exciting curriculum. Being the English lead, you will be able to drive your own vision of English and support our staff to ensure consistently high levels of teaching and learning. 

About us 

Situated in the thriving town of Peterborough, we boast a fantastic new building and a vibrant atmosphere. We are larger than the average Primary academy that opened in 2013. With the help of the Greenwood Academies Trust, we have since been judged as “Good” by Ofsted.    

We’re looking for a class teacher who: 

• gets excited about books, language, drama, writing and passes this enthusiasm onto others;
• can positively influence teaching and learning across the Academy;
• can contribute to the further development of a strong and forward-looking team;
• can be innovative in their techniques to motivate young learners; 
• is able to make positive relationships with staff, pupils and parents alike.   

We can offer you: 

• an inclusive academy with a good reputation for developing well rounded, caring children who feel safe and valued whatever their skills and abilities;
• a caring and motivated team of staff who help and support each other;
• dedicated PPA time with year group colleagues and leadership time to drive English;
• happy, confident children who enjoy being at school;
• opportunities for continuing professional development, including the Trust's ‘Learning Alliance’. 

We are part of the Greenwood Academies Trust (GAT) and work collaboratively to share best practice. We are also supported by the expertise within the Central Team to enable them to focus on teaching and learning.    

The staff, pupils and facilities at this academy make it a great place to work. Visits are warmly welcomed and encouraged; please contact Rachel Dawkins, Office Administrator on 01733 563180 or email: rdawkins@wellandacademy.org
