Teacher Primary (2) (1.0fte)

Dumfries and Galloway’s approach to education looks to combine the traditional values, ethos and atmosphere of this unique corner of Scotland with fresh 21st century thinking. We are seeking to appoint creative teachers with vision and a passion for learning. This post represents an excellent opportunity to be innovative in developing our culture of sharing and learning.

At Langholm and Canonbie Schools Cluster we are not only committed to providing the very best educational experiences and opportunities but also to develop our young people as leaders and responsible citizens who will make a huge difference to the school community and beyond. We work in partnership with our parents and carers, members of the local community, other partners in learning and most importantly, our children and young people.

These posts form part of Langholm and Canonbie Schools Cluster to deliver BGE as appropriate to meet the needs of our learners.

Applicants are required to be fully registered in primary education with the General Teaching Council of Scotland (GTCS), Clerwood House, 96 Clerminston Road, Edinburgh, EH12 6UT.
