  • A passionate teacher with drive to develop aspirations and create lifelong learners and citizens of the future.

What the school offers its staff

In return, we can offer:

For example, we offer PPA at home; teachers are not required to take collective worship; teachers are not required to cover break duty so that they can be well prepared for their next lesson and subject leaders are offered additional time each term to lead their subject.

  • Various high-quality curriculum platforms, including KPOW and White Rose Maths, so that teachers can easily resource their lessons, whilst also having autonomy over their own lesson planning.

  • An ambitious, successful and vibrant place to work with a brand new learning environment and dedicated staff.

  • Children who are well motivated and keen to learn.

  • High quality support and Continued Professional Development.

  • An opportunity to shape the future of our school.

  • An established and clear behaviour policy.

  • A reasonable marking policy that reflects the EEF’s recommendations and findings.
