You matter to us.

Following the exciting promotion of one of our colleagues, we have a fantastic opportunity to join a vibrant, forward-thinking federation of four schools at the heart of their communities: Paston Ridings, St John’s, Winyates and Barnack. With a strong team spirit within and across the federation, our staff flourish, belong and feel proud to make a difference every day.

🌟 Your growth matters
We will inspire and support you to become the teacher you want to be. From a dedicated Team Leader to guide your induction, regular support with planning, teaching and assessment, to excellent CPD and coaching, your professional journey is at the heart of our work.
🌟 Opportunities available
If you’re looking to flourish and grow in 2027 and beyond, we offer leadership development at your pace. Opportunities to shine are frequent, whether that’s honing your classroom practice, taking on a curriculum area in the future or exploring wider leadership pathways.
🌟 A thriving community
Our dream is to create opportunities for children and staff to think big, aim high and recognise their potential - knowing anything is possible. If you are someone who can make great things happen, we’d love to welcome you.

We are the right school and federation for you if:

• You enjoy working as part of a positive, well-established team.
