KS1 /KS2 Teacher

"Brooklands is one-form entry primary and nursery school based in a leafy private estate in Blackheath, Greenwich. We aim to provide the very best education for all our pupils; giving time so that each child can develop academic, personal and social skills in a caring and stimulating family-type environment. Here we believe that children learn best through direct experience. Our school curriculum is based on this principle, which captures interest, stimulates enthusiasm and provides learning opportunities for pupils of all abilities. At Brooklands, pupils are encouraged to take an increasing responsibility for their learning, which we believe promotes greater confidence and independence, preparing them for their future life. 

Brooklands is also part of the highly successful Maritime Academy Trust, an innovative partnership of eight academies working across Greenwich, Bexley, Kent and Medway.

We are looking for two teachers to join our team and help us on our mission to provide our children with the very best educational experience. 

One post will be with our Year 3 class during the Summer Term but may be in any year group for the following academic year, the other post will be with our  Year 1 class. There are a number of additional responsibilities available for those interested in developing their leadership skills which may include a TLR payment for some roles.

 You will be

• a qualified teacher with previous experience of working in school;
•  a dedicated professional committed to ensuring the best life chances of children;
•  someone who is keen to develop their knowledge and skills of best practise 

In return we offer

•  a positive, happy and friendly working environment
•  a fantastic school community all working towards achieving the best for our pupils
•  opportunities for further career development through the Maritime Academy Trust
•  a range of amazing benefits through the Maritime Hub such as EAP Pensions, Cycle to Work Scheme, Wellbeing Centre, Employee Assistance Programme, development opportunities and access to hundreds of retail discounts 

Brooklands is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. An Enhanced DBS check will be sought for the successful candidate."
