Primary Teacher

At Bodriggy Academy, we are seeking to appoint an outstanding Year 2 teacher, but more importantly, the right teacher for our school community. We are looking for a skilled and enthusiastic practitioner who is passionate about helping children flourish at a crucial stage in their primary education, ensuring they develop the confidence, knowledge and skills needed for the transition into Key Stage 2.

We are proud of our commitment to high-quality, inclusive teaching and to fostering a culture where strong relationships, high expectations and a rich, engaging curriculum sit at the heart of what we do. The successful candidate will join a collaborative and supportive team, contribute fully to the life of the school, and play an active role in creating learning experiences that enable every child to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.

Whether you are an experienced teacher or an ambitious early career teacher with the potential to excel, we are looking for someone who shares our belief that every child can succeed and who is committed to making a lasting difference to the lives of the children and families we serve.

About You:

We are looking for a teacher who is above all a genuine team player: someone who contributes positively, works collaboratively and embraces the shared responsibility of whole-school improvement. You will be committed to building high-quality, authentic relationships with pupils and familes, recognising that these are the foundation for excellent learning and behaviour. We value professionals who are creative in their approach, adaptable in response to the needs of the children they teach, and resilient in the face of challenge. You will bring energy, professionalism and a reflective mindset, alongside a clear commitment to inclusive practice and high standards for all. Above all, you will share our belief that great teaching, rooted in care and ambition, can transform life chances for all.
