Class Teacher job summary
Welcome to St Barnabas C ofE Primary School, a Church of England school in the heart of Wiltshire. St Barnabas are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate Teacher. At St Barnabas, we are proud of our church roots and celebrate that we are a school for children of all faiths and none. A school that is based on a Christian vision and values and is determined to provide a high quality education to all pupils. A school that is inclusive of all pupils and is relentless in developing the whole child.
Our vision guides us all to work diligently, act generously and to seek peace at all times. This is evident through:
- the high quality work our pupils produce, facilitated by our experienced and dedicated team of staff
- our charity and community work which we encourage all pupils to actively engage with
- the range of activities we have in place to encourage healthy competition, turn taking and to ensure engaging activities at break and lunch times to prevent arguments
Our values of Courage, Hope, Respect and Compassion are evident through the behaviours you will see across the school and the pupils’ dedication to serve others with humility, recognise when they may have done wrong and to forgive others. We build good relationships with all our families, and have recently received an Investors in Families Award due to creating a close community and having an effective partnership with parents. Older children support the younger ones in a variety of ways, helping newcomers to feel secure and enjoy their time with us. All our children are taught to share a sense of respect and responsibility towards each other.
We reserve the right to close this advertisement early in the event of receiving sufficient applications.
This role will involve contact with children and the post holder will be engaged in regulated activity relevant to children and will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check before appointment is confirmed. We will only submit a DBS application to the relevant disclosure service when a position is accepted.
This Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We follow Safer Recruitment procedures and all interviews, regardless of role, will include questions about approaches to safeguarding. Our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy is available on our website and follows all guidance in the most recent Keeping Children Safe in Education.
All posts involving direct contact with children are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. However, amendments to the Exception Order 1975 (2013 & 2020) provide that certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’. These are not subject to disclosure to employers and cannot be taken into account. Guidance and criteria on the filtering of these cautions and convictions can be found on the Ministry of Justice website.
Please note that by submitting an application, you acknowledge that we reserve the right to view any publicly available information published online (including social media platforms) as part of our shortlisting process, in line with current KCSIE guidelines.
