About the role

Within our recent partnership with Wadhurst CE Primary School, Ticehurst and Flimwell Church of England Primary school is inviting enthusiastic and dedicated applicants who are keen to be part of a new vision and direction for our small family school in East Sussex.

We are a compassionate, safe and supportive community encouraging all to serve and respect one another. Through our Christian virtues, we persevere, learning from our mistakes in the quest for wisdom and our mission to thrive and ultimately flourish.

Our children deserve the very best and have asked us to recruit them a wonderful teacher for our Reception/Year 1 class.

Are you someone who can:

• play with us, have fun and bring learning to life?
• care, support and encourage us?
• help us to learn that getting it wrong is getting it right?
• listen and understand us with patience and compassion?
• build trusting relationships and nurture them?
• give lots of opportunities to build our curiosity, creativity and excitement?
• most of all believe in us and challenge us to be the best we can be?

If you are that special person, why not come and see us? We would love to show you around our welcoming school.

To make an appointment to visit us and discuss the role, please contact Mrs Mactear at our school office on 01580 200344 or email office@ticehurst.e-sussex.sch.uk.

The position is advertised as full time but if the right candidate requested part time (0.8 or 0.9), the school would consider this.
