Cleaner job summary
Woodborough School is a proud member of EQUA Mead Learning Trust. Our family of like-minded schools collaborate to provide mutual support, share best practice and learn from each other, whilst retaining and developing each school’s distinctive character. We believe all children and young people have the right to a great education and we seek to improve the life chances of all those we serve; it is our mission to give Every Child, Every Chance of success.
Across our Trust, we want our children and young people to be inspired by their learning, and to instil in them a motivation and aspiration to succeed in all they do. Our schools are highly inclusive and we are proud to have high expectations of our children and young people, encouraging and preparing them to do their very best in their learning both within the curriculum and beyond.
High quality teaching is a priority, coupled with strong nurturing support, where adults genuinely care about the wellbeing of the children and young people in their care. It’s our aim to meet the needs of each child individually and we provide the resources and staff to achieve this. Our dedicated team is committed to providing a wonderfully creative learning environment to fascinate every child. Aspirations for excellence underpin all that we do; our schools are highly inclusive and we are proud to have high expectations of our children and young people.
Children and young people in our schools are happy and safe, motivated to reach their full potential and equipped to become resilient, independent learners. They are prepared to live responsibly and peacefully in the spirit of understanding, and opportunities to develop their creativity, confidence and communication skills are woven into all aspects of school life.
Inclusion is the beating heart of our organisation, and we cherish it in our staff just like we do in our children. We are committed to creating a workforce that is reflective of our communities and welcome applications from anyone with the skills and experience to do the role they are applying to, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, disability or any other protected characteristic.

An ambitious and vibrant place to work, with enthusiastic staff and children in all of our schools

Woodborough School is set in a village location overlooked by the Marlborough Downs. We have approximately 160 pupils on roll accommodated in seven classes.
We aim to create an atmosphere in which all children are valued and value their place in a Christian school community. Our dedicated and knowledgeable staff know each of our children as individuals and academic achievement, high standards of work and respectful, considerate behaviour are encouraged. Strong emphasis is put on the pupils’ ability to socialise, have empathy for others and to think creatively.
Our school provides a broad, stimulating and inclusive curriculum where learning through experience is a priority. Pupil visits, both day and residential, and regular themed weeks enhance learning and teaching and a wide variety of outside visitors to the school provide variety, breadth and enrichment.
Over the years our school site has been remodelled to meet the changing needs of the school population. The most recent developments have seen the addition of a new kitchen, administrative areas, a spacious school hall, a new playground and a pull-in area for school transport. The extensive school grounds are continually being developed to create learning areas for environmental study and stimulating places to play.
We firmly believe in fostering strong and positive relationships between home and school. Many opportunities arise for parents to be involved with school life and we take great pride in being at the heart of the community. We are certain that children perform best when we all work together.
Please contact us if you would like to view the school – we are always happy to show parents and children around and to answer any questions you might have.
We look forward to meeting you.
Yours sincerely
Katie Scaplehorn
