Y2 Teacher Vacancy (Maternity Cover)

Are you looking for a new challenge? Have you got the skills that we are looking for to be a teacher at our lovely school?

Working as a Year 2 teacher at Our Lady and St Kenelm is truly a blessing. Each day is filled with curiosity, laughter, and the joy of seeing young minds and hearts grow in faith and learning.

Our Year 2 children are eager explorers — discovering new ideas, building friendships, and developing a deeper understanding of God’s love in their daily lives. As a teacher, you’re not just nurturing academic success, but also guiding children to live out Gospel values such as kindness, respect, and compassion.

In our caring, faith-filled community, every member of staff is valued and supported. We work together in prayer and purpose, celebrating each child’s achievements and milestones — from the first beautifully written sentence to the proud smiles of a successful assembly performance.

Teaching here means being part of something bigger — shaping not only bright learners but also kind, confident, and faith-filled individuals ready to shine their light in the world.

If you think that this is the role for you, please apply!
