Class Teacher

About the role

As we look ahead to the new year, we are looking to appoint a teacher to join our team. If you are a dedicated and enthusiastic person with high expectations of yourself, your colleagues and your pupils, you could be the teacher for us. 

You should be passionate about learning and achievement, and support the values that underpin our school. You should be calm, confident and creative, and keen to work collaboratively within a year group team and share good practice both within our school and within our federation.

We are a friendly, supportive and welcoming 4 form entry junior school. In June 2023, OFSTED stated that the school ‘continues to be Good’ - 'Pupils are articulate, respectful and are keen to share their opinions. They talk about their learning with enthusiam'.  Our Church School inspection in November 2019 confirmed we are an Excellent  Anglican School (SIAMS).

We can offer you:

• a school with great facilities

• amazing children

• supportive and friendly colleagues who value teamwork and will support you in developing your professional practice and experience

• a well-being working group and employee assistance programme

• a place at one of Castle CE Federation's wraparound care provdiers, should you have a pupil at one of our schools.

Visits to our school are encouraged – come and see what more we can offer you! To arrange a visit, or to have an informal conversation about the role, school or federation, please email tiffany.randall@castle.herts.sch.uk.

Prospective candidates are encouraged to submit their application as soon as possible, as we reserve the right to withdraw this vacancy before the advertised closing date if a suitable candidate is appointed. 

Castle Federation comprises two Church of England schools in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire: Victoria Infant and Nursery School and The Thomas Coram School. The Castle Federation family was created because we believe our schools, pupils and staff gain many benefits from working together. We deliver, through partnership and collaboration, integrated and outstanding teaching and learning experiences for all children so they thrive and flourish in learning and love. 

Castle CE Federation is an equal opportunities employer. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to rigorous pre-employment checks including an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check as well as other pre-appointment checks outlined in Keeping Children Safe in Education (September 2023).
