A well-led Good primary in Croydon is recruiting a dedicated Year 3 Teacher to join its KS2 phase on a Part-Time basis with a January 2026 start.

Why this Part-Time Year 3 Teacher post?
This Croydon school understands flexible working: the Part-Time Year 3 Teacher will take a full professional role in planning, assessment and parental engagement while working a Part-Time timetable.

The Year 3 Teacher will use formative assessment to identify next steps, run focused small-group interventions and collaborate with teaching assistants and colleagues. The Year 3 Teacher will lead enrichment, contribute to moderation and support transition work; the Year 3 Teacher will begin preparation for these responsibilities before January 2026, attend induction in January 2026, and deliver high-quality learning from January 2026.
