What the school offers its staff
Sharrow School is an
inclusive primary school at the heart of a vibrant, multicultural community. Our
beautiful, purpose-built school is located just off London Road, looking out
across Mount Pleasant Park. With a nature-reserve on the roof, an allotment and
orchard, a performing-arts space and a Children’s Centre on site, we cater for
children from 3 months to 11 years, as well as providing learning opportunities
for older children and adults out of school hours. Our building has been designed to provide
flexible teaching spaces where staff can learn from and support each other,
with good access to outdoor space for all year groups. The excellent facilities
help to ensure we are able to meet the needs of the children and their families
by delivering a creative and exciting curriculum.
Our hard-working staff team are passionate about ensuring that all children enjoy their time at Sharrow and make good progress. We attach significant importance to developing children’s literacy and numeracy skills as well as their creative and expressive skills. We also encourage children to develop their sporting abilities and have PE specialists as part of the staff team. We teach in a variety of styles to best match the needs of the children and provide the most effective learning experiences.
A walk along the London Road will give you a flavour of the cultural and racial diversity of the community. The school serves an economically diverse area - with housing ranging from large stone fronted Victorian properties to privately-rented accommodation and Council flats. The school has a commitment to equality of opportunity for all learners and operates a vigorous inclusion policy. As a whole school we are committed to providing the children with a range of experiences beyond the school gate, and supporting the families in our community.
The successful candidate will be provided with support and challenge to develop their skills further through coaching, mentoring and succession planning. We actively encourage quality CPD and there are opportunities to work with a range of outstanding staff and outside consultants. Applications from ECTs are welcome.
