Primary Teacher - Barking and Dagenham

EdEx are working with a "Good" graded school based in the borough of Barking and Dagenham, who are looking to appoint one Primary Teacher, there is flexibility around year groups (Years 1 to 4 ideally but not set in stone).

What sets this school apart from others?

• Work-Life Balance - the Headteacher is passionate about making sure teachers can balance the ever-growing demands for teachers meaning 1 additional day of leave & an on-site counsellor!
• 2 Form Entry school - meaning shared planning & an experienced class teacher to bounce off (who is super friendly!)
• Leading CPD and Training - the Headteacher (and SLT) are keen for people to progress and not stagnate, the school is well-funded via a strong MAT and not in a large deficit!
• Inspiring Headteacher - I have personally spoken at length with the Head, she is LOVELY. Incredibly supportive, wants her staff and children to do well, but also understands the challenges teachers face in 2025!
• Good School with Outstanding Behaviour - Children are well-behaved; their behaviour policy is not a "no tolerance" policy and you will have autonomy to support children as you see fit

The school have recently appointed one other teacher via EdEx who absolutely LOVED the school, so we can confidently say you'll be in a great school surrounded by like-minded driven and compassionate teachers. The school has only had 2 teachers move on in 4 years, due to the fantastic support network across the MAT and school in general.
