At King Edwin Primary School, we don’t just fill classrooms; we build a community. A unique opportunity has arisen for a truly exceptional practitioner to join our Key Stage 2 team. Whether you are an Early Career Teacher (ECT) looking for the perfect launchpad or an experienced Main Scale teacher seeking a school that values your autonomy and craft, we want to hear from you. 

At KEPS, we are known for our "awesome team" culture and our commitment to our KingEdwinner children. We are looking for a teacher who is ready to be more than just an educator -we are looking for our 
next #KingEdwinner. 

What Defines a #KingEdwinner in KS2? 

We are searching for a candidate who brings a blend of professional rigor and genuine warmth. You will be: 

  • A specialist in engagement: You understand that KS2 is a time of rapid growth. You design lessons that 
    aren't just "covered," but are lived and remembered.
  • Driven by high standards: You have an uncompromising belief in what children can achieve. You take 
    pride in the quality of learning and the depth of discussion in the classroom. 
  • A supportive team player: You thrive in a collaborative environment. You are ready to share ideas, 
    reflect on your practice, and contribute to the "magic" that makes KEPS unique. 
  • Ambitious for the future: You don’t just want a job; you want a career where you can grow. We offer 
    an exceptional induction for ECTs and continuous professional development for established teachers. 
  • A commitment to quality: You take pride in all that you do. You understand that "good enough" isn't 
    the KEPS way; we strive for excellence in all areas of school life. 

Why Choose King Edwin? 

  •  A vibrant learning culture: Our school is a place of innovation and energy. We move fast, we dream big, 
    and we support one another every step of the way.
  • The "KEPS Way": You will join a staff team that is famously supportive. We work hard, but we ensure 
    that being a teacher here is rewarding and sustainable. 
  • Our children: Inquisitive, respectful, and full of potential. They are the heart of everything we do and 
    the reason we strive for excellence.

If you are ready to bring your unique character and exceptional teaching skills to our team, we would love to 
meet you.

Please submit your application form, along with a formal letter of application to the School Office 
(office@kingedwin.notts.sch.uk). In your letter, please outline your philosophy for Key Stage 2 education and
