We’re looking for a talented, passionate and

We are particularly interested in employing either :

If you are an ECT, we have the capacity and strength to ensure your career gets off to a strong start. Finding the right school that can offer you a balance between challenging you to do more than you thought was possible and supporting you to do it. Make no mistake, our school comes with a unique set of challenges and you will have ‘multiple hats’ to wear, even as an ECT…but you will be mentored and coached by a talented staff team who are genuinely motivated to ensure your success.
2.A Qualified Teacher For A KS1/KS2 Class
As a

and initiatives are welcome to help us to build on our successes.
In any role at Oakfield, we look for, nurture, value and expect…
- Resilience – Bouncing back when things are challenging. Learning from mistakes to make it even better next time.
- Creativity – Thinking of new ideas that have value. Using initiative, experimenting, taking risks, innovating, making links and problem solving.
- Self Management – Planning & prioritising, being organised, taking responsibility and developing confidence.
- Collaboration - Working effectively a team through sharing, agreeing & debating, talking & listening, contributing & team work.
- Empathy – Understanding others through being compassionate, not judging but supporting all.
- Curiosity- Taking an interest, asking questions, inspiring & enquiring, listening and explaining.
- Reflection – Thinking deeply, reviewing and improving through the setting of targets, evaluating & analysing our learning.
What the school offers its staff
We recognise that this role isn’t for everyone, but if you’ve made it this far and you’re still reading, we’d love to hear from you.
- We have biscuits in the tin, coffee in the pot and the occasional cake or two
- A commitment to ensuring a strong work-life balance (including flexible working in PPA)
- A lively “work-hard - play hard” talented team
- Supportive and active leaders - including the governing body - with high expectations but warm approach.
- A very supportive PTA
