Year 1 Primary Teacher - Southwark - September 2026

A high-performing Primary School in Southwark, South London is searching for an Year 1 Primary Teacher to join their team in September on a permanent contract.

The school is very academically focused, perhaps not to every teachers liking, however they achieve exceptional results across the board every year for the past five years. Children are exceptionally well behaved and parents are supportive, knowing that a strong education is vital for their children's success.

Children still access a creative, well-thought curriculum, however they are taught with clear structure and excellent behaviour management strategies to ensure outcomes are achieved, with the child always at the forefront. Better yet, children benefit from a purpose-built, modern, well-equipped school with all the bells and whistles, including fantastic TA's.

The Headteacher is looking for a strong, accomplished Year 1 Primary Teacher who can confidently teach Year 1 and achieve strong results. For an experienced teacher, TLR's can be available depending on availability and internal movement.
