Hartford Infant School is an Academy and we are part of a local MAT (multi-academy trust) called
The CAM Academy Trust along with Hartford Junior School, Thongsley Fields Primary and St
Peter’s Academy. Hartford Infant School is situated on a shared site with Hartford Junior School,
with which there is close cooperation. The shared site has several playgrounds and a field. Our
intake is very broad feeding from both Hartford and the Oxmoor Estate.
Our school has six spacious class bases, a large hall, an office, a library and two additional group
rooms. Currently we have 180 children on roll organised into six classes – two Reception classes,
two Year 1 classes and two Year 2 classes. Year groups work closely in teams, with a Team Leader
who ensures high quality provision is delivered across both classes. Teachers in each year group
have PPA at the same time so they can plan together and make joint decisions about the year
group. Each class has at least one Teaching Assistant to help meet the demands of the curriculum
and needs of individual children.
As a school, we have a strong commitment to continued professional development for all. We
believe we are all life-long learners and want to ensure our practice is the best it can be through
continual high expectations and a willingness to evaluate and make improvements where
necessary. All new members of staff have a formal induction.
In 2008 we were graded as Outstanding by Ofsted. We have gained the Basic Skills Quality Mark
four times. These awards are the result of the whole school community working closely together.
On average our children typically enter our Reception Class achieving below the national
expectation, but by the time our children leave us their achievements are above, or significantly
above the national average, representing good value added.
Hartford Infant School is well supported by both parents and governors. The parents regularly raise
funds to purchase resources for school. Parents are welcome in school and many regularly help.
Part of your role will be to ensure the objectives of the school’s policy for Multicultural and Equality
of Opportunity are followed. This policy provides a framework for the school to pursue its equality
duties to eliminate unlawful discrimination and harassment, promote equality of opportunity, and
promote good relations and positive attitudes between people of diverse backgrounds in all its
activities.
Candidates need to be aware that canvassing any member of staff or member of the governing
body, directly or indirectly, is prohibited and will disqualify your job application.
