Primary Classroom Teacher

  

We are a Middle School in an attractive, semi-rural location in South Staffordshire with over 400 students on roll. 

The school is part of the Penk Valley Federation along with 4 other schools based in the local area: Marshbrook First School, Princefield First School, St John’s (CE) First School and Wolgarston High School. The vision of the Federation is to take collective responsibility for ensuring that every child and young person in our federation receives an excellent education, achieves high outcomes and realises their potential. 

This is a truly exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and ambitious classroom practitioner to join our committed team here at Penkridge Middle School. This post will be expected to deliver a primary style education to a class of Year 6 students. The ability to teach all core subjects is a necessity to ensure that all students make excellent progress.
