An established industry player is seeking a dedicated Reception Teacher to join a supportive team in Nuneaton. This role involves covering a class during maternity leave, with the opportunity for flexibility in working days. You will be responsible for lesson planning, attending meetings, and engaging with parents. The school values commitment and offers a day at home for report writing, ensuring a balanced workload. This is a fantastic chance to make a meaningful impact in the early years education sector while enjoying the benefits of a collaborative environment.
Early Years Foundation Stage, Reception Teacher, Nuneaton
A lovely infant school based in Nuneaton would like a teacher to join their welcoming and supportive team to cover their Reception class whose teacher is going off on maternity leave. I have been advised that they would like a teacher for 5 days, PPA time will be given during the week. If you prefer 4 days a week rather than 5, but you like the sound of the role, please apply, and we can have a conversation surrounding flexibility with the school.
You will be starting after the Easter break. Ideally, the school would like the successful teacher to complete a handover, but they're aware that this may not be the case due to other work commitments. The role will then continue until the end of the academic year.
The expectation will be that you are responsible for the planning and preparation of lessons - this will be shared with your counterpart, PPA time will be taken together, which I always think is rather useful. You will be treated as a permanent member of staff and will therefore be expected to attend staff meetings, conduct parents-evenings, write end-of-year reports, and plan end-of-year assemblies.
The school allows all teachers a day at home to complete all end-of-year reports, which is fantastic.
First and foremost, the head teacher would like a committed and dedicated teacher. They have never required a teacher on a long-term basis before and would really like the successful person to be able to commit to the entirety of their maternity leave.
