We wish to appoint a candidate for the role who is community focused and who shares our values led commitment to creating an ambitious, forward thinking learning environment for all our pupils, students and staff. Every child in each of our Trust schools is entitled to excellent teaching every lesson of every day. This ambition drives our commitment to making our Trust a great place to be, work, and learn.
You will be working with and be supported by the Principals of the schools to offer the best education and experiences for our children. We believe strongly in ensuring all staff have a work life balance and take teacher workload seriously.
This is a fantastic opportunity to use your primary experience to help shape the Trust.
You will be a creative teacher with:
The skills to deliver the curriculum in a stimulating and interesting way.
Well-developed behaviour management skills.
Experience of meeting a wide range of pupil needs including those with SEN.
A proven record of good classroom organisation and management.
The ability to develop good relationships with staff, children, parents and the wider community.
An interest in, and enthusiasm for, opportunities for outdoor education and learning.
What we offer:
Being part of a family of schools within a values-based Trust.

We are working hard to make our community a great place to work so that our values underpin everything that we do, and everything that we are. All our colleagues are valued members of our community, and we take seriously the demands of their job.
We strongly encourage co-operation and sharing of suitable resources is encouraged across the Trust.
Marking and feedback will be specific to reduce time spent out of school hours and to increase impact.
We will not overburden staff with the collection of unnecessary student data. Professional judgement is integral to our systems.
There is no expectation that staff will respond to emails outside of normal working hours. We trust our staff to make professional decisions about when they work outside school hours.
Where new initiatives and policies are introduced, we consider what we might stop doing to make space for new expectations.
In all that we do we look first for the evidence of positive impact on students’ learning, outcomes or well-being. If it is not there, we don’t do it.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a successful cross phase Trust as it commences its next phase of development. If this sounds like the challenge you have been looking for, we’d love to hear from you!
