Behind every confident child is a teacher who believed in them first - the teacher who offers encouragement at just the right moment, celebrates every success, and occasionally helps solve the mystery of a missing jumper five minutes before home time.

At Corpus Christi, teaching is about more than delivering a curriculum. It’s about inspiring curiosity, nurturing confidence and creating a classroom where children feel safe to try, question, succeed - and occasionally laugh at the little surprises that come with learning.

Corpus Christi is a caring, friendly and ambitious school where happy children discover a genuine love of learning. Guided by our values of Believe, Hope and Trust, we nurture independent thinkers and lifelong learners who are confident in their abilities, respectful of others and ready to take on the world.

We are looking for a talented and enthusiastic Class Teacher who wants to make a real difference and be part of a supportive, welcoming, and values-driven school community.

We are looking for someone who:

Is an excellent classroom practitioner with high expectations for every child
Can turn learning into an engaging and meaningful experience that sparks curiosity
Brings creativity, energy and warmth to their teaching
Builds strong, positive relationships with pupils, families and colleagues
Believes every child deserves to feel valued, challenged and successful
Is reflective, motivated and committed to continual professional growth
Enjoys working collaboratively and contributing to wider school life
Has a passion for education, shaping young minds, and the ability to locate lost jumpers at record speed!
Understands that great teaching often involves equal parts planning, encouragement and patience.

At Corpus Christi, you will find:

Children who are enthusiastic, kind and eager to learn
A genuinely supportive and collaborative staff team
A school where wellbeing and professional trust are valued
Opportunities to develop leadership and curriculum expertise
A strong sense of community where every member is known and valued

Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School is proud to be part of The Dunstan Catholic Educational Trust, offering excellent professional development and collaboration across a family of schools throughout the South West.

If you are a teacher who understands that great teaching is built on relationships, high expectations and those everyday moments that help children grow in confidence and character, we would love to hear from you.

We welcome and encourage visits from prospective applicants. Please contact our School Office Team on 01934 621919 or send an email to office@cc.thedcet.com to arrange a visit.
