Who we are

LifeFull Schools brings together Princess Frederica CE Primary School (Brent), St Clement & St James CE Primary School, and St Thomas’ CE Primary School (Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea). Each school has its own unique character and community, united by a shared Christian ethos and our vision for every child and adult to belong, learn and grow for life in all its fullness (inspired by John 10:10).

Formally federated on 1st July 2025, our collaboration has created strengthened leadership capacity across our schools. Together, we share expertise, nurture staff development, and deliver a broad, ambitious curriculum that enables children to flourish academically, socially, and spiritually.

At LifeFull Schools, we value diversity and inclusion and are committed to creating and sustaining a workforce that reflects the diverse communities we proudly serve. We warmly encourage applications from professionals from Global Majority backgrounds who share our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.

What we are looking for

  • A strong understanding of how children learn, with a commitment to securing the best possible progress and wellbeing for all pupils, regardless of background.

  • The ability to deliver engaging, well-structured lessons that meet the needs of all learners, including those with SEND, EAL, and high prior attainment, ensuring equality of opportunity for all.

  • Strong knowledge of curriculum requirements, assessment strategies, and statutory expectations.

  • A willingness to work across any of our three schools and to build positive, trusting relationships with children, colleagues, and families.

  • Flexible, proactive, and positive, with a clear ‘can-do’ attitude and the ability to remain calm, diplomatic, and professional in all situations.

  • High awareness of the varied demands of different school environments, working with sensitivity, confidentiality, and discretion.

  • A commitment to continued professional development and a desire to strive to improve their practice and expertise.

  • A supportive team player who embraces and upholds our LifeFull Schools ethos and policies: people-centred, inclusive, and committed to helping our community flourish.

  • Someone with leadership potential—motivated, aspirational, hardworking, and eager to develop, supported by experienced school leaders.

  • Fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

What we offer

  • Thriving schools with a rich arts provision.

  • The opportunity to change narratives for a diverse range of children.

  • A supportive, experienced leadership and staff team.

  • Excellent CPD and career development opportunities within a growing federation.

  • An outstanding, enriching curriculum rooted in our Christian vision alongside inclusive, nurturing practice.
