Year 2 Class Teacher

Islington, Greater London, United Kingdom Teach Now Full time £25,000 - £40,000 per year

Are you a driven and compassionate KS1 teacher ready to make genuine impact? A warm, inclusive primary school in the heart of Islington is looking for an enthusiastic Year 2 Teacher to join their supportive team for a full academic year. This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled practitioner who thrives in nurturing, community-focused environments and is committed to helping pupils overcome learning barriers.

You will lead a friendly class of 22 pupils, supported by a dedicated classroom TA and a 1:1 assistant for a child with an EHCP. Many children are currently working below national expectations—at Reception and Year 1 levels—so the school is seeking someone confident in accelerating progress, closing learning gaps and inspiring learners with varied needs.

What You'll Bring:

  • Proven experience raising attainment for pupils below expected standards
  • Strong understanding of SEND and effective collaboration with support staff
  • Excellent behaviour management and the ability to create a structured, positive learning space
  • Engaging, differentiated teaching that supports diverse starting points
  • A nurturing approach that builds confidence and supports transition into KS2

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Supportive senior leadership and a collaborative staff team
  • A chance to create measurable impact within a class that will truly value you
  • Opportunities for professional growth while maintaining a healthy work-life balance

If you're passionate about helping children reach their potential and available to start soon, we'd love to hear from you.
