Primary Teacher Resume — Frequently Asked Questions

How do I show progress data on a primary teacher resume?

Quote cohort-level reading, writing and maths attainment against national expectations, e.g. "88% of Year 2 pupils met the expected standard in phonics screening, up from 71%." Specific, subject-level numbers carry far more weight than "improved student outcomes."

Should I mention my QTS status even if it's implied by my job title?

Yes, state it explicitly near your name or in your qualifications section (e.g. "QTS, 2021") since applicant tracking systems and school HR teams filter specifically on this credential.
