Class Teachers x 3 job summary
We are looking for three full time teachers to join our team as from the start of the autumn term.
Two of the posts will be permanent and the third temporary until 31/08/2020.
We welcome applications from existing teachers and NQTs alike.
We have an excellent record in terms of supporting the development of teachers and we hold our staff in very high regard, they are our most valuable resource and so we take time to nurture and value them. Staff enjoy coming to work and give 100% to both children and colleagues. We all work hard here and our efforts are rewarded with the satisfaction gained from seeing youngsters move on with their learning. The school population comes from a range of backgrounds, free meals entitlement is 28% and many have difficulties outside school. We have a strong pastoral team to support our work with these particular children.
As we are expecting a large number of applications for these posts we will not be able to respond to each applicant personally. Please include in your letter evidence of the quality of your teaching and what you already know about our school.
The closing date is Wednesday 27th March 2019 at noon, so if you have not heard from us by the end of the day on Thursday 28th March please assume your application has not been carried forward to the next stage. If this is the case please accept our thanks for your application and our best wishes for any further applications you might be making.
Depending on numbers there may well be a shortlisting event held in school on Friday 29th March. Details of this will be provided if you are invited to attend. Shortlisted candidates will be observed teaching on Wednesday 3rd April with interviews being held on Thursday 4th April.
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We have a designated senior member of the leadership team who is responsible for referring and monitoring any suspected case of abuse. All members of staff will receive training in line with our child protection policy.
If you like a challenge, don’t mind hard work and want to make a difference, fill in your application and return it to us by noon on Wednesday 27th March.
If you have any further queries please ring the school direct on 01524 832747 but please note we will not be doing tours around school until the shortlisting phase of the process.
