Dear Applicant,
Thank you for applying for a position in our school. I hope to give you a little background information about our amazing school and why it is such a great place in which to work and to continue to develop and further your career in.
Stocks Lane Primary School has undergone many changes since it was built in the Victorian era as a First School. It became a through primary school in 2002-2003 as a half-form entry with 105 pupils on roll when the nearby housing estate was built. Following a further building expansion, we became a one-form entry school in September 2021, which is still a relatively small sized school in Bradford these days.
Our 206 pupils come from across the Queensbury area, but the majority live in the near-by private housing estates in Clayton Heights. Our makeup of pupils is that of mainly white British working families with 14% Pupil Premium and 24% of pupils being from an ethnic heritage.
The values that run through every member of staff and Governor at Stocks Lane are those that we instil within every child in our school community on a daily basis. They are: Believe, Encourage, Succeed Together (BEST). We also work on developing a positive mind-set and Marvellous Mistakes, as it is what we learn from our mistakes and how we deal with them, that moves our learning forward in all areas of our lives.
Our pupils are very conscientious and have a thirst for learning a variety of new and exciting things, whilst the staff have clear, high expectations of each and every child in the school.
In May 2024 we had a Section 8 inspection where OfSTED continued to grade our school as a ‘Good’ school and we strive to keep this accolade and of course, as always, improve upon it.
Please take a look at our website to find out more about our school.
