About the role

Bring your junior teaching expertise, professional curiosity and leadership potential to Cambridge Primary School.

We are seeking an excellent teacher to lead our Batten syndicate and teach Year 0 or Year 1. This permanent, full-time position includes 2 permanent management units and 0.2 FTTE leadership release, providing one day each week for leadership meetings and Team Leader responsibilities. The position commences on 2 February 2027.

Our identity is grounded in Quality, Tradition and Innovation, with a shared commitment to Creating Powerful Students. We care deeply about excellent teaching, strong foundations, belonging and the experiences that make primary school memorable. Our supportive parents and whaanau have high aspirations and want their children to be all they can be.

We seek a creative thinker who sees each day as a new opportunity to inspire learners. You will bring strong structured literacy and numeracy practice, knowledge of BSLA or a commitment to developing it, and sound curriculum and assessment knowledge.

You will build trusting relationships, support colleagues to strengthen their teaching, and translate high expectations into purposeful learning, appropriate challenge and responsive support for every child.

We welcome fresh perspectives on curriculum and team leadership, including the new Science and Social Sciences curricula. We are interested in the ideas you would bring to create excitement, curiosity and a buzz around learning in Batten.

Whether you are an experienced leader or an excellent teacher ready to step into leadership, this is an opportunity to contribute ideas, grow others and help shape the next chapter of junior learning at CPS.
