Are you an ambitious, resilient, and highly skilled Qualified Primary Teacher looking to secure a vital classroom leadership role for the upcoming academic year?

We are seeking a high-calibre Qualified Year 6 Primary Teacher (QTS mandatory) to join our partner Primary School in Hemel Hempstead for a full-time, long-term placement starting in September 2026.

Your Responsibilities

• Rigorous Curriculum Delivery: Plan, prepare, and deliver high-quality, engaging lessons across all subjects in alignment with the Key Stage 2 National Curriculum, pitch-matching to challenge higher-attainers and support lower-ability learners.
• SATS Preparation & Guidance: Utilise clear formative and summative assessment frameworks to monitor pupil tracking data, implementing focused interventions to build confidence ahead of end-of-stage assessments without compromising a broad, balanced curriculum.
• Writing & Mathematical Fluency: Cultivate advanced reading comprehension, sophisticated writing stamina, and complex mathematical problem-solving skills across the cohort.
• Inclusive Classroom Leadership: Effectively deploy and manage classroom Teaching Assistants to deliver targeted 1:1 or small-group interventions, ensuring pupils with SEND and EAL can fully access learning objectives.

• Collaborative School Contribution: Maintain proactive, professional partnerships with parents, carers, and upper Key Stage 2 phase leaders to support overall pupil well-being and progress.

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS): Mandatory. A proven history of classroom teaching within a UK primary school setting (prior Year 6 or upper Key Stage 2 experience is highly advantageous).
• Deep Upper KS2 Framework Knowledge: A strong understanding of Key Stage 2 assessment frameworks, primary writing moderation standards, and effective arithmetic strategies.
• Exceptional Behaviour Management: The ability to establish clear routines, high behavioural expectations, and a warm, motivational classroom environment from day one.
• Commitment to the Complete Academic Year: The professional reliability to commit to a full-time, 5-day-a-week timetable starting in September 2026.
