The Role

At Ide Primary School, we are excited to be appointing a teacher to join our team in September 2025.  

 

Ide Primary School is a village school located on the edge of Exeter. We enjoy all the benefits of the rural location, whilst also making the most of the opportunities that the city of Exeter has to offer. Our staff ‘know children as individuals’ and we are proud of the way that every child is included, known and valued. Our caring ethos is underpinned by the school values or kindness, respect, individual best and curiosity. Children are welcomed into Ide from age 2 and the children throughout the school enjoy having lots of opportunities to interact across the age groups.  

 

The role would suit someone with experience of teaching in upper KS1 or KS2. Experience of teaching mixed age classes would be beneficial but is not essential as we have structures in place to support teachers who are new to this way of working.  

 

We are looking for someone who loves teaching and learning and can develop strong, positive relationships that inspire children to be the best they can be.  Our children are naturally curious and engaged with learning and it is important to us that our teachers share in this excitement for finding out more, making links and developing a sense of wonderment about the world we live in.  

 

The successful candidate will have a secure knowledge of the National curriculum and pedagogy to ensure quality in teaching and learning across the full range of primary subjects. Our children see themselves as being active geographers, musicians, authors, and so on- across the full range of the curriculum. Every subject is important at Ide and we arrange lots of additional experiences, trips and visitors to support learning. 

 

You will work as part of a supportive and friendly staff team at the school, to ensure all children are receiving the best possible education to reach their full potential. 

 

Whether you are an early career or experienced teacher, you will have access to continual professional development and leadership opportunities to help you develop your practice and work towards any future career aspirations.
