What the school offers its staff

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for the next step in their teaching career and to work in a popular two-form entry primary school and nursery.

We have a team of experienced staff who are continuing to support the development of teaching and learning across the school.

You will be part of a supportive and collaborative team of educators who share your commitment to excellence and are dedicated to providing a safe, inclusive, and nurturing learning environment. Our 2-form entry parallel class structure means that our teams work closely and support each other with all aspects of teaching and learning. PPA sessions are time-tabled so that year groups have time together to plan an enriching curriculum supported by phase leads.

Curriculum development is supported by our experienced subject leads and where possible additional time is given throughout the year for subject leads to monitor and develop their areas of responsibility further.

In return for your hard work and dedication, we offer ongoing support, professional development opportunities, a supportive staff team, and amazing pupils.

If you are ready to join a team that is passionate about making a difference, come and visit us or email us with any enquiries before applying and let's take the first step on this exciting journey together!
