Job description

As part of our on-going relationship with Supply Clouds and the Crown Commercial Services, we have been asked to assist a primary school in King’s Lynn who is seeking an experienced and qualified year 2 class teacher.  The school is looking for a teacher to work within their school on a short term basis covering a teacher on maternity leave.   

We find ourselves in a strange situation where we are unable to commit to the exact start date as this is firmly down to government advice on when the schools may re-open for year 2 children.  The school is managing to cover this vacancy whilst it is operating at its current capacity for key workers however will need a teacher ready to start quickly when things change. 

Our ideal candidate will have the below attributes;

  • As a qualified primary teacher, you will be an outstanding classroom practitioner with a proven ability to understand and utilise current theory and practice in relation to learning and development. 
  • You should have a teaching qualification suitable for primary education and recent experience teaching year 2. 
  • An ability to organise, lead, and manage a classroom effectively, including assigned support staff will be central to your role. 
  • Establish good relationships, encourage good working practices, and support and lead teachers in the phase group.

The staff at this school work hard to recognise the needs of individuals, placing suitable demands on them and stimulating them to achieve success. They are proud to create ordered and friendly communities where relationships are positive, founded on courtesy, respect, and shared values. 

Candidates will be subject to a variety of checks including an enhanced DBS check, full references including your most recent employer, and eligibility to work in the UK. 

Step Teachers are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment.

Unlike other agencies, Step Teachers are more than happy to process your pay via PAYE – you will not be forced to go with an Umbrella Company.

Step Teachers are an agency listed as an approved supplier on the Crown Commercial Service.  This is a new framework for schools to use, ensuring they have access to reputable agencies that meet certain safeguarding and recruitment guidelines.  The DfE are heavily marketing this service across schools and we would strongly suggest making sure you are registered with a CCS approved agency moving forwards.  Registering with Step Teachers ensures you are working for a trusted partner of the DfE.
