Job overview
We are looking for a teacher for our lower key stage 2 class. If you are passionate about helping children to develop into confident, resilient, caring young adults, then please read on.
Longwood is an independent school in Bushey. We keep our classes small to ensure that the children receive plenty of individual care and attention. We employ several specialist teachers, which leaves the class teachers to focus on the core subjects. Non-contact time allowance is generous, giving teachers a realistic amount of time to prepare for each lesson.
Academic standards are high, but more importantly, creativity is nurtured and behaviour is outstanding. Our children are safe and happy and visitors always comment on the friendly, caring atmosphere which emanates from every corner of our school. Family values are constantly at the forefront of all that we do. Our mission statement states that “Every person is valued and the well-being of our school community is at heart.”
Our successful candidate will be a qualified, experienced and happy teacher. They will be able to work both independently and as part of a team, and they will be flexible and open to new initiatives. We can offer opportunities for CPD, a bright classroom with excellent resources and facilities, full support and a sense of fun.
If you would like to become part of Longwood, please get in touch. Visits are welcome and can be arranged by calling or emailing. We would love to hear from you.
We are committed to safeguarding children and to that end, all staff are subject to an enhanced DBS check. We have robust policies and procedures in place and they are available on our website.

As you step into Longwood, you will immediately sense the vibrant, busy atmosphere. You will be greeted with a friendly smile and see the whole team working hard to keep everyone safe and happy. At Longwood, every person is valued and the well-being of our school community is at heart and it is this ethos that runs through everything we do. Whether you visit at 7 o’clock in the morning or the evening, whether during term time or during the holidays, you will see children engaged in exciting activities, all aimed at developing every single one of them to reach their potential. You might find the children engrossed in a science experiment, exploring in the “secret garden”, burning some energy on the “log world”, or preparing a PowerPoint presentation about The Vikings, The Amazon Rainforest or Magnetism. Or you might not find them at all; they may be on a nature walk around Bushey, or having a sports lesson at the adjacent leisure centre, or out on one of our numerous field trips. When you visit, the children will be keen to tell you about their maths lessons, their sporting endeavours, their roles and responsibilities, their 11+ successes and their special friendships with older/younger pupils. The staff will also be happy to help you decide for yourself what Longwood has to offer you. Please come and see for yourself.
