Key Stage 1 (or lower KS2) Class Teacher (Experienced)

We are looking for an experienced, passionate and creative individual who has high expectations for children to join our exciting school. 

Van Gogh Primary is delighted to be part of Dunraven Educational Trust, and together we are focused on developing an exciting, dynamic and progressive community, focused on improving the outcomes for children and their families.

Our school motto is ‘Creating Excellence’ and we strive to achieve this through our six school values:

• Ambition: setting high expectations for myself and others
• Respect: respecting myself, others and the world around me
• Collaboration: learning from and with my family, teachers, peers and community
• Integrity: developing integrity; doing the right thing, even when nobody is watching
• Drive: working hard and putting effort into everything I do
• Exploration: exploring facts, ideas and concepts

We are looking for  an experienced class teacher who will be able to share and can contribute to the implementation of these values.  

In light of the recent pandemic (COVID-19), we would ideally like to appoint an individual who has advanced training and experience of working with children who have experienced trauma.  This could include trauma sensitive practices and mindfulness.

If you are successful in your application, you will join a staff who are hard-working, committed, positive in outlook and dedicated to the achievement of our children. 

In return, you will enjoy:

• A well-resourced school, with specialist teachers and staff
• A commitment to providing you with high-quality professional development
• Future leadership opportunities
• Opportunities to work across the Trust
• A supportive professional community
