Are you a passionate, QTS-qualified Year 1 teacher looking for your next role in Brent? This is an excellent opportunity to join a supportive Key Stage 1 team where phonics, early reading and a love of learning sit at the heart of every classroom.
About the role
Tradewind Recruitment is partnering with welcoming, well-organised primary schools across Brent to find a committed Year 1 Teacher for September 2026. Positions are available on a full-time or part-time basis.

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) - essential
Proven KS1 classroom experience, ideally in Year 1 or Reception
Strong phonics knowledge, including systematic synthetic phonics and the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check
Confident, positive approach to behaviour management and classroom routines
Experience differentiating for SEND, EAL and mixed-ability learners
Up-to-date safeguarding and child protection knowledge
