Early Years Teacher

Hawkesdown House is a thriving independent pre-preparatory school for boys aged three to eight situated in Kensington.

The Early Years Foundation Stage at Hawkesdown House is a loving, happy, nurturing time for all the boys in our care. Our classrooms are well-resourced through a range of technological resources to enhance the learning experience as well as practical resources to support kinaesthetic learning. We provide an environment that understands and supports each individual boy's talents and interests and stimulates their curiosity and the desire to learn and explore their world. We understand what a key time this in a child's development and how important it is to provide a curriculum that excites a joy of learning. The Early Years Stage at Hawkesdown House uses a combination of play, child and teacher led activities, games, and music, to teach.

The school is looking to recruit an exceptional, enthusiastic and talented Early Years Teacher for January 2017, to cover maternity leave in a Reception class.
