KS2 Teacher- ECT

ECT Teacher – KS2 (Year Group Flexible)

East London, E1

M1–M6 (Inner London Pay Scale)

September 2026 Start

We are recruiting!

Not just for any ECT — but for a teacher at the very start of their career who already thinks deeply about learning, who cares about craft, and who wants to teach in a school where ambition and humanity sit side by side. A small, two-form entry multicultural primary school in East London (E1), proud of our community and unapologetically ambitious for every child. Our children and families represent a rich range of faiths, languages and cultures — and they work and learn together with warmth and respect. Housed in a striking Victorian building alongside thoughtfully designed modern teaching spaces (completed in 2017), our school blends heritage with forward-thinking practice. There is a real sense of purpose here — and yes, as Ofsted noted in February 2023, “the school buzzes with activity.”

The Role

• KS2 class teacher (year group flexible depending on strengths) Inner London pay scale M1–M6 Full ECT induction with structured mentoring Collaborative year group planning

We are open-minded about whether your passion lies in lower or upper KS2 — we are far more interested in appointing the right teacher than fixing a year group too early.
