Dear applicant,
Firstly, on behalf of all the children, staff and Governors I would like to say thank you for expressing interest in the Class Teacher posts at St Martin’s. In so many ways this is a career enhancing post and being a teacher in our 1 and half form entry Primary will be challenging, rewarding and above all provide you with the experience to further your career in today’s ever changing education world.
I was delighted to be appointed Headteacher recently at St Martin’s and I am looking forward to starting my new post from Easter 2021. It is clear to see that at St Martin’s school outcomes have improved, their approach to spelling has been remodelled and the teaching of Maths is rapidly becoming a strength. The school is warm, welcoming and outward facing; creating a vibrant and supportive ethos. The children have impeccable behaviour and beautiful manners and are a credit to our families. I was wowed by the pupil’s patience, tolerance, resilience and the respectfulness they show to each other, the staff and visitors – and I am sure you will when you visit us!
As a staff team we are dedicated and hardworking, and are always celebrating the achievements of all. The governing body are focused, strategic and challenging and want nothing less than the best for our children.
As a teaching professional joining us, you can expect to be given the encouragement, space and tailored professional learning journey as you join us as our new Class Teacher.
We welcome visitors and hope that you will come and see for yourself the huge changes which have happened at St Martin’s which make us the school of choice across our local area.
Good luck with your application.
Claire Barber
