Primary School Teachers are responsible for the education and development of children from Kindergarten to Grade 6. They help children develop academically, socially, and emotionally and ensure a love of learning that will follow them throughout life. They are responsible for planning and delivering engaging lessons, managing classrooms, assessing students' progress, and working with parents and colleagues to ensure each student reaches their full potential.
