Class Teacher

About the role

Our children at the Brookland Federation, are looking for an inspirational teacher to come and join our fun, dynamic and vibrant community!

We are looking to appoint an innovative, passionate, and ambitious primary classroom teacher.

The Brookland Federation consists of two schools; Brookland Infant and Nursery School and Brookland Junior School. Both schools have been rated ‘GOOD’ by Ofsted. The infant school is 2-form entry and the junior school is currently 3-form entry.  

If you are passionate about teaching and learning and keen to make a difference to the lives of our children, we want to hear from you.

Initially, we are offering a 1 year fixed term contract but there is a possibility that this could be extended or made into a permanent contract after the initial year.

We can offer you the opportunity of working within our friendly and highly motivated team, focused on raising standards and committed to providing the best education for our children. 

The ideal candidate will be able to create a nurturing learning environment, which demonstrates their ability to accelerate children’s learning and be committed to achieving high standards as well as creating an inclusive environment for all.

You will be fully supported by the headship team across the Federation. Our outstanding staff and children make us a great place to work. When you join us, you will be supported and developed through our extensive CPD programme and given effective PPA allocation to allow for a better work/life balance. We ensure that year group PPA is offered together so that joint planning can take place weekly.

In return, for your experience and fresh ideas, we can offer you:

• Enthusiastic, responsive children, who are a pleasure to work with;
• A dedicated team who continually strive for excellence;
• A headship and senior leadership team who are committed to driving the school forward;
• A whole staff commitment to work in partnership with parents, community and stakeholders;
• A supportive and ambitious governing body;
• Support from Herts for Learning Education and opportunities for continued professional development and the ECT programme (where appropriate);
• A team who are dedicated to ensuring positive wellbeing for all;
• On-site parking.

The Brookland Federation is committed to the wellbeing and safeguarding of children and expect all staff to share this commitment. Applicants and post holders must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, and appointments are subject to a satisfactory enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and references.
