CFS is looking to employ a Primary class teacher to join our developing team. 

Hours

We would ideally like to appoint a full-time, 5 days per week, teacher who has the experience and flexibility to teach across the full primary age range. 

About our school

Independent Sector, 170 to 200 pupils from 4 to 16.

CFS is a faith venture within a parent collaborative setting, where young people learn to consider the world and themselves in a Christ-centred way, and the next generation are actively discipled to equip them to serve society creatively and courageously. School families come from diverse ethnic and church backgrounds across the wider Merseyside region.

We see working at CFS as part of our Christian calling to serve the church through education. The salary structure is consequently reflected in this vision.

The successful candidate will take responsibility for teaching across the full range of core and foundation subjects, following the school’s established curriculum and contributing to its ongoing development.

They will ensure that pupils are well grounded in knowledge, understanding and habits of learning that enable them to thrive as they move through the school.
