Year 2 Class Teacher (Two Days Per Week: Monday & Tuesday)
Are you an enthusiastic go-getter with a passion for teaching and learning, who thrives in a supportive and fun environment?
At Farnborough Grange Nursery and Infant School, we believe in working hard and playing hard. We are a vibrant, forward-thinking school in Hampshire, committed to nurturing every child's potential, irrespective of their ability. Our strong school values — We Respect, We Aspire, We Belong — underpin everything we do.
We’re a really lovely team who genuinely support one another. We believe in striking a good work-life balance, meaning there are no expectations for after-school clubs and we’re flexible when it comes to attending your own children’s assemblies, for example. We love to celebrate successes and each other; from buying cakes on birthdays to enjoying ice lollies in the summer and often heading out together for a well-deserved end-of-week catch-up. We're a great team who want to do the best for the kids but have fun doing it!

· Excellent CPD opportunities at both school level and on a wider Multi-Academy Trust level.
· A supportive Multi-Academy Trust and Local Committee who are invested in the development of the school and the welfare of the children and staff.
· A genuine commitment to work-life balance and staff wellbeing.
