What can a Year 6 teacher expect in Peterborough?
Year 6 is the final year of primary school. In May, children sit the KS2 SATs in reading, maths and grammar, punctuation and spelling, and writing is teacher-assessed. Peterborough schools look for Year 6 teachers who can prepare children well while keeping learning enjoyable.
After SATs, Year 6 teachers prepare children for the move to secondary school, working with local secondary schools on transition days. Many schools put on a leavers' production or trip to finish the year.
Year 6 is an important year for schools, so experienced Year 6 teachers are always in demand, especially for long-term cover in the spring term.
Key Responsibilities
- Plan and teach engaging lessons across the Year 6 curriculum
- Prepare children for KS2 SATs in reading, maths and GPS

- Work closely with teaching assistants, parents and the SENCO
- Create a safe, positive and well-organised classroom
