Sires Hill Primary Academy opened its doors for the very first time in September 2023, and welcomed our new 2 year olds into the school in September 2024. The school will eventually become a two form entry primary school with a nursery for children from 2-11.

Due to demand for nursery places we are looking to recruit an additional Learning Support Assistant (LSA) who would be excited by the prospect of working in our 2 year old provision, establishing a culture of high expectations, care and kindness. Sires Hill Primary Academy works in partnership with Didcot Primary Academy, following the same curriculum and benefitting from the expertise of an established primary school.
