Class Teacher

Are you an excellent teacher who strives to be the very best you can be each day? Do you bring enthusiasm, hard work, and a genuine love of learning into the classroom? If so, we would be delighted to hear from you.

We are a welcoming, ambitious school with strong relationships at the heart of all we do. We are looking to appoint a dedicated and inspiring Main Scale Teacher in KS1 or KS2 to join our friendly team. Whether you are just starting your career or bring valuable experience as you move towards the Upper Pay Scale, we welcome applicants who recognise the demands of teaching and who are ready to work with determination and resilience to meet them.

You will deliver an engaging, well‑planned curriculum, create a positive and supportive classroom environment, build strong relationships with pupils and families, and use assessment effectively to ensure every child achieves their potential. From ECT Year 2 onwards, subject leadership is also an important aspect of the role.

We offer a supportive team, a positive school culture, and a thriving school where your contribution is highly valued.

This post is being advertised as a permanent position. However, we also anticipate that a temporary teaching position for one year is likely to become available. If you wish to be considered only for the permanent post, please make this clear on your application.

Visits are strongly encouraged—please email sarah.bentley@etwall.derbyshire.sch.uk to arrange an appointment. Please note that online checks will be completed for shortlisted candidates prior to interview.

Provisional Interview Date: 13 or 14 April 2026
