What the school offers its staff

It is a real pleasure to introduce you to Holy Trinity Church of England Academy. We are a strong single academy trust situated in the Wiltshire town of Calne. Holy Trinity is a single form entry school -we have 210 children on roll currently.

Holy Trinity was built in 1866 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2016. It is a privilege to lead a school with such a rich history. Staff are very supportive of one another and work hard to maintain our children’s superb attitudes to learning. Holy Trinity is a family in which everyone is nurtured.

One of our teachers will be going on maternity leave. We are looking for a teacher to join our staff from Monday 3rd November 2025. Due to the nature of a maternity post, this could start before Monday 3rd November. We have a strong track record in developing teachers at Holy Trinity and look forward to welcoming you to our team.

We are looking for a full-time Key Stage 2 teacher on a maternity contract. As a single academy trust, Holy Trinity is forward-thinking and outward-looking. We are driven to do the very best for the children in our care. We want all of our children to leave Holy Trinity in Year 6 with a strong moral compass, God-given Christian values and a love of learning.

The class teacher role offers a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate to develop their skills and contribute to the full life of the school.

We take staff wellbeing seriously, within the busy life of a primary school. This includes a report writing day for school reports and additional time given to support subject leadership when required. There are many opportunities for continuing professional development.

I warmly welcome you to Holy Trinity and look forward to meeting you. If you are able to, please arrange a visit with our school office or arrange a telephone or Microsoft Teams call with the Headteacher.
