HOURS: 13 hours, 2 days per week

Are you an inspiring and dedicated practitioner passionate about sparking a lifelong love of learning? We are seeking a dynamic Primary Teacher to join our collaborative team, creating a nurturing and stimulating classroom environment where every child is encouraged to reach their full potential.

About WPT

At Wickersley Partnership Trust (WPT), we are fueled by a single commitment: 'We never do less for other people’s children than we would for our own.' As a thriving network of schools across South Yorkshire, we combine high expectations with embedded inclusivity. We do not work in silos; instead, we rely on deep collaboration and school-to-school support to ensure every student develops socially, emotionally, and academically to achieve the highest standards.

About the Role 

As a Primary Teacher within the Trust, you will have the privilege of shaping young minds during their most formative years. You will be responsible for planning and delivering high-quality lessons across the primary curriculum, tailored to meet the diverse needs of your class. Beyond academics, you will play a vital pastoral role, promoting the social and emotional well-being of your pupils and building strong partnerships with parents and carers. Whether you are an Early Career Teacher (ECT) looking for a supportive start or an experienced professional ready to share your expertise, you will find a collaborative and forward-thinking community here.

Responsibilities

• Teaching & Planning: Plan, prepare, and deliver engaging courses and lessons; teach pupils assigned to you according to their educational needs, including setting and marking work carried out in school and elsewhere.

• Assessment & Targets: Assess, record, and report on the development, progress, and attainment of pupils in accordance with school policy. Set short-term learning targets with the pupil (and parents, where possible) taking prior attainment into account.

• Pastoral Care: Promote the general progress and well-being of individual pupils; provide guidance and advice on educational and social matters, and make records/reports on personal and social needs when appropriate.

• Communication: Communicate and consult effectively with parents/carers, usually in cooperation with senior phase leaders or the Head of Year, and participate in relevant meetings.

• Professional Development: Regularly review your teaching methods and programmes of work, participating fully in INSET, professional development, and the school’s Appraisal and Performance Management framework.

• Environment & Safeguarding: Maintain good order and discipline among pupils, safeguarding their health and safety on school premises and during authorised school activities elsewhere.

• Examinations & Assessment: Participate in arrangements for preparing pupils for public examinations/statutory assessments (e.g., SATs/Phonics Screening), including recording, reporting, and supervising during such assessments.

• Wider Contribution: Contribute to the induction of new teachers and take part in the review, development, and management of the curriculum, organisation, and pastoral functions of the school.

• Administration & Cover: Attend assemblies, register pupil attendance, supervise pupils during breaks when required, and provide cover for absent colleagues as far as is practicable and reasonable.
