Reception Class Teacher

If you love those first school moments, the wobbly hellos, the proud “look what I did!”, and the magic of seeing confidence grow day by day, this one’s for you.

A brilliant primary school is looking for a Reception teacher to join them after Easter. You’ll be stepping into a warm, welcoming environment where early years is done properly, with time, care, and a real understanding of what children need.

The team is supportive, leadership is hands-on, and the setting is designed to spark curiosity, from cosy reading corners to outdoor spaces that get little minds (and legs) moving.

Why you’ll like it here:

• A team that genuinely supports each other
• A well-thought-out EYFS setup, no guesswork needed
• Happy, engaged children who love coming to school
• A balance of structure and creativity in the classroom

You’ll take on full class responsibility, including planning and assessment, and be paid to scale accordingly.

If you’re someone who knows that Reception is about more than phonics and numbers, it’s about confidence, independence, and those lightbulb moments, you’ll feel right at home.
