Primary KS2 Teacher with SEND job summary

Thank you for your interest in the Teacher of KS2 with SEND position at Pix Brook Academy.

Pix Brook Academy opened in September 2019 to its first group of Y5 pupils. Working from brand new facilities in the village of Stotfold, the school offers a fantastic opportunity for a colleague to join a school as it grows. Currently there are 720 pupils on roll in Y5, Y6, Y7, Y8 & Y9.

From September 2023 the school took its fifth year group of Y5 pupils who joined the school in its brand new site. The team of new and highly experienced staff have developed an innovative and fully resourced primary curriculum. The new permanent site includes all the facilities and resources expected of a brand new school and provide a genuinely outstanding teaching environment.

The school is part of the BEST multi academy trust which is based in Central Bedfordshire and includes a number of lower, middle and upper schools. The trust benefits from a strong relationship with a teaching school and is both well established and supported. The current plan for the school is to develop as an extended secondary school catering for pupils from Y5 to Y11. The bespoke design of the building is intended to provide the ideal learning environment and will suit both primary and secondary pupils.

Currently the school recruits from the lower schools in the surrounding area all of which are either OFSTED outstanding or good schools. Parents are highly supportive of the school and its ethos and we are very proud to have achieved an Ofsted rating of Good with outstanding features in January this year.

I am unapologetically ambitious for the people at the school, both staff, pupils and the school itself. I believe that we should be highly aspirational in our goals for ourselves and our pupils and that we have a responsibility to ensure we make a difference. If you feel the same then this is an unparalleled opportunity to make your mark on a school where the curriculum and student experience is limited only by your imagination. If the opportunity to build your career within a new school, to join a small team of committed, innovative and energetic staff who are determined to provide an outstanding student experience then I would be delighted to hear from you.

If you would like an opportunity to visit the school please contact our HR Manager, Cathy, on cbailey@bestacademies.org.uk
