This is a fantastic opportunity to join a successful primary academy within the ATC (Achievement Through Collaboration) Multi Academy Trust.
We are extremely proud of our school; the achievements of our children, the expertise and dedication of our staff, the support of our parents, our outstanding facilities and our reputation as a centre of excellence.
The school and nursery classrooms and the outdoor play areas have been modernised and refurbished to an exceptional standard over recent years and we are very proud to be able to offer our children a truly exceptional learning environment which is bright, stimulating and state of the art in terms of technology, innovation and comfort.
A building, however, is only as good as the people working within. Staff and pupils benefit from the investment we place on their development: as well as playing a key part in supporting other schools across the ATC Achievement through Collaboration Trust.
