Primary School Teacher – Full-Time | Birmingham
Start Date: September 2025
Salary: Competitive and negotiable, based on experience
(plus daily smiles, spontaneous applause from Year 2, and a lifetime supply of "Miss! Miss! Miss!")
Are you the kind of teacher who can turn a spelling test into a story, a maths lesson into a mission, and a rainy Tuesday into a triumph? If so, we'd love to welcome you to our school family.
We're on the lookout for a Primary School Teacher to join our warm, inclusive, and forward-thinking team in Birmingham this September. Whether you're an experienced educator or an Early Career Teacher (ECT) ready to take your first leap, we'll be right there cheering you on—with coffee in hand and a spare glue stick at the ready.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Planning and delivering creative, high-quality lessons that make learning stick (and occasionally sparkle)
- Creating a classroom where every child feels safe, supported, and excited to learn—even on a Monday morning
- Monitoring progress and giving feedback that builds both skills and self-esteem
- Supporting children with a range of needs, including those with SEND, EAL, or just a deep love of dinosaurs
- Building strong relationships with families, colleagues, and the occasional class teddy bear
- Taking part in the wider life of the school—from sports day to school plays (yes, even if you end up narrating dressed as a giant pencil)
What We're Looking For:
- PGCE or equivalent teaching qualification
- QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) in the UK
- Experience in a primary setting—or strong placement experience for ECTs
- A calm, confident presence with excellent classroom management
- A team player with a sense of humour and a heart for children
- Someone who knows that teaching is part planning, part patience, and part being able to find a working whiteboard pen in under 10 seconds
What We Offer:
- A competitive salary – because your talent and time are worth it
- A genuinely supportive leadership team – we've got your back, not just your lesson plans
- Ongoing CPD and career development – we invest in your growth, not just your marking pile
- A structured ECT programme – with mentoring, guidance, and someone to remind you where the laminator lives
- A collaborative, friendly staff team – who share ideas, resources, and the last biscuit
- A well-resourced school – with actual working glue sticks (most of the time)
- A wellbeing-focused culture – because you can't pour from an empty cup
- A staffroom with good coffee, better company, and a biscuit tin that's (almost) always full
Why Join Us?
At our school, we believe teaching is more than a job—it's a calling. We celebrate creativity, encourage innovation, and support each other through the highs and the challenges. We laugh together, learn together, and occasionally cry over the photocopier together. If you're looking for a school where your ideas are valued, your growth is supported, and your impact is felt every day—you'll feel right at home here.
