ECT KS2

Are you an English or Humanities graduate with QTS ready to inspire upper KS2 pupils while being properly mentored in your ECT year?

This larger Gateshead primary school has just over 420 pupils and a strong academic focus, particularly in reading, writing, and topic-based learning. The school has recently appointed a new Deputy Head with responsibility for curriculum development, and ECT support is a clear priority within their improvement plan.
