Teacher

We are looking for an experienced, passionate and motivated teacher with proven impact to work alongside all members of The Hilton Lane Family to champion our children. We need someone who is resilient and driven to achieve the very best outcomes for children, who can build relationships with all stake holders, who has experience with supporting and challenging all children; especially those with Special Educational Needs someone who will go above and beyond for each and every child in their care to deliver the highest possible standard of education and support.

The successful candidate will need to have a strong team ethic and be ready to contribute positively to The Hilton Lane Family. You must also have a clear understanding of the importance of child protection and safeguarding and what this means in practice in a school environment.

The TLR associated with the role is related to Maths subject leadership and Community Engagement. However, with all TLRs, the area of responsibility could change in the future dependant on the needs of the school. We are looking for someone who has effectively lead subjects and had positive impact on outcomes in their own classes and beyond.

This post is likely to be for a KS2 teacher (Year 6) based on current staffing, however, this is subject to change and the post is for a general main pay scale teacher and therefore the year group could change in the future. We welcome applications from candidates on main pay scale 3 and above.
