Yarborough Academy is looking for a nurturing and inspiring Teacher to join our team from September 2024 to cover a team member on maternity leave. We are looking for someone with vision, drive and passion to create and deliver cutting edge education.  We are a larger than average primary school, striving to make a difference in the local community through a brain based and science led approach to learning and education. We CARE (Create Attachment Relationships in Education) to get the best out of children’s brains. We are looking for someone who is dynamic, encouraging, empathic, innovative, well-regulated and is committed to working in a relational way.

The role would ideally suit someone ready for an exciting journey and challenge, who has patience in abundance and enjoys sharing the magic of learning.

• A commitment to developing positive relationships with staff at school, children, parents and outside agencies.

…then we’d love to meet you and welcome you to our kindness led school family.
