Calcot Junior School · Reading, South East
The staff and governors are
looking for someone who is passionate about high-quality teaching and committed
to helping every child achieve their very best. At the same time, we know that
the best teachers bring more than strong classroom practice — they bring
warmth, humour, creativity and the ability to build positive relationships with
children, families and colleagues.
Our pupils would love someone
who:
Makes learning exciting, engaging and
memorable
Is kind, patient and fair (but can still spot
when they are trying to “borrow” an extra five minutes of break time!)
Has high expectations and believes every child
can succeed
Enjoys getting involved in school life —
whether that’s trips, theme days, performances or special events
Can laugh at themselves and doesn’t mind that
no two days are ever quite the same
We are looking for a teacher who:
Is an effective and reflective classroom
practitioner with high expectations of achievement and behaviour
Has a secure understanding of the Key Stage 2
curriculum
Is committed to inclusive practice and meeting
the needs of all learners
Is eager to develop professionally and engage
in high-quality CPD opportunities
Works well as part of a team and contributes
positively to the wider life of the school
