What the school offers its staff
Further details about the role
Over the last 2 years, not including normal Nursery/Reception admissions, we have welcomed 125 new children into school (around 25% of NOR) and 68 children have moved on to other schools or moved to another country.
Significant numbers of our new children are asylum seekers and refugees and experienced severe trauma on their journey to our country, community and school. We know a number of our children have 3 or more ACEs through our Safeguarding and Inclusion work and recognise that there will be many more where we have not had notification or provide intervention.
We serve an area of extremely high socio-economic deprivation, where experience of, and aspiration to, education success has been historically and significantly low – IMD & LSOA data confirms the children live in an area that is identified as being in the most deprived 5% of the country and has become more deprived since 2015. Our constituency, Bradford East, has the highest rate of unemployment in Bradford, the lowest life expectancy and highest infant mortality rates. Crime figures show that we are in the 2% most affected areas in the country.
All of these challenges have resulted in our proactive work to ensure that our curriculum and approaches meet the needs of all children, including the large proportion who are new to the country, community and school. You will be pivotal to our work.

Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment.
