If you know there’s nothing better than seeing a child read their first sentence or proudly show off a muddy discovery from outdoor learning, keep reading.

We’re working with a lively, community-driven primary school in Bristol where learning spills beyond the classroom. Think forest school adventures, hands-on exploration, and a team that genuinely enjoys what they do.

What makes this role special?

• A strong focus on emotional development alongside academics
• A school culture built on kindness, inclusion, and high expectations
• Support from experienced leaders and a collaborative teaching team

You’ll fit right in if you:

• Bring energy, creativity, and a love for early learning
• Know how to balance structure with play
• Care about the whole child, not just the curriculum
• Enjoy being part of a team that shares ideas and lifts each other up
