KS2 Teacher (Primary) – Short-Term & Long-Term Opportunities

Location: Warwickshire
Contract: Flexible (Short-term and Long-term roles available)
Salary: Paid to scale

We’re looking for a confident KS2 teacher who knows how to take ownership of a classroom and keep pupils motivated, focused, and progressing. This role would suit someone who is adaptable, organised, and comfortable stepping into a busy mainstream primary setting—whether for a short-term cover position or a longer-term placement.

The Role
You’ll be working within Key Stage 2, delivering lessons that are clear, purposeful, and accessible to a range of learners. The role can vary depending on the length of placement, so being able to quickly read a classroom and respond accordingly is essential.

What You’ll Be Doing

In Short-Term Placements:

• Delivering lessons that have already been set, ensuring continuity for pupils
• Keeping behaviour consistent with school expectations
• Maintaining a productive and calm classroom environment
• Leaving clear handover notes on progress and any issues
• Settling quickly into new classrooms and following school routines

In Long-Term Placements:

• Planning and delivering sequences of lessons across the KS2 curriculum
• Assessing work and using this to inform next steps
• Tracking pupil progress and identifying gaps
• Managing behaviour and building strong routines over time
• Attending staff meetings and contributing to team discussions
• Communicating with parents and supporting wider school activities

What We’re Looking For

• A teacher who is confident leading a KS2 classroom from day one
• Strong understanding of the KS2 curriculum and expectations
• Someone who can manage behaviour without overcomplicating it
• A practical, solution-focused approach to teaching
• Reliability, adaptability, and good communication skills

What You Can Expect

• A supportive school environment where staff work together
• Flexibility to suit your availability and career goals
• Opportunities to move between short-term and long-term roles
• Engaged pupils who respond well to clear expectations

If you’re looking for a role where you can focus on teaching, maintain high standards, and adapt your approach depending on the setting, this could be a good fit.
