Primary teachers work with children between the ages of four and eleven. They are responsible for one class and teach across all areas of the primary national curriculum. Primary teachers focus on the three core subjects of English, Maths and Science but also need to be comfortable teaching subjects such as Art, History, Music and PE, and be proficient in the use of ICT. They are also expected to offer a subject specialism and often act as a coordinator for this subject across the school.
