Primary ECT | Supportive, Friendly & Nurturing School | Chelmsford | September 2025 - Education and Training
Are you a Primary ECT looking for a warm, welcoming school to complete your ECT years in?
If so, Academics may have the perfect Chelmsford-based opportunity for you this September!
We're proud to be working with a truly supportive Primary School in Chelmsford, Essex-an environment where both staff and pupils thrive. Over the past year, we've built a strong relationship with this school, having visited multiple times and met with their fantastic Headteacher, dedicated SLT, and vibrant teaching staff.
The Headteacher, who has led the school for nearly a decade, has created a culture that is both nurturing and ambitious. This is a school that puts children first, values staff wellbeing, and is serious about supporting ECTs through their induction years.
What Makes This Chelmsford Primary School Stand Out?
- Incredibly down-to-earth and supportive staff across the whole school
- A "buddy system" where every teacher has someone to lean on
- Experienced and approachable ECT mentors
- SLT who step in when needed to protect work-life balance
- Open, honest communication-proactive support is a priority
- "Marking parties" to lighten the load and encourage teamwork
- Dedicated full-time PPA teacher to give you flexible planning time
- Beautiful outdoor spaces, sensory rooms, and well-resourced classrooms
The Role:
The Headteacher is ideally looking for a Primary ECT who is open to teaching across KS1 and KS2, with year groups assigned based on where you'll thrive best. You'll be fully supported from day one and employed directly by the school on a permanent contract, starting in September 2025.
Interviews and trial lessons are being arranged now and will continue up to the May resignation deadline-but we recommend getting in touch ASAP if you're interested.

Whether this school is the perfect fit or you'd like to hear about other ECT roles in the Chelmsford or wider Essex area, we're here to support you every step of the way.
