Caldicott is one of the country’s most prestigious Independent Boarding and Day Preparatory Schools for Boys. We are a flourishing school with around 250 boys from 7 to 13 years old, with all boys boarding in the final two years. We deliver a first class education, sporting provision and a rich variety of music, drama, arts and extracurricular opportunities in a friendly and supportive working environment. The school is only twenty miles from central London in a beautiful location.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an able and inspiring teacher to join our highly successful Lower School team. This full time position requires the ability to teach Year 3 and Year 4.

The successful candidate will:

• be passionate about equipping boys with a flair for solving problems and lateral thinking;

• have a strong academic background that would add to the school’s academic culture;

• be equally at home teaching those who find the subject hard and those who work at a level above their age group; and

An ability to teach a second, core subject in upper Key Stage 2 would be advantageous.

All Year 7 & 8 either weekly or full board so boarding is an important part of our culture and over 95% of boys leaving at 13+ to the UK’s top boarding schools. The successful candidate must show a desire to play a full and active role, including contributions to pastoral care and extra-curricular activities.

Caldicott is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.
