• Forming a positive relationship and responding to the child’s individual needs as appropriate

• Adapting activities and tasks to enable the child to access the curriculum

• Liaising with parents and outside agencies relating to specific programmes of support

• Keeping accurate records of achievements and progress

• Responding to any health or welfare needs

• Forming trusting professional relationships with staff and parents/

Christ Church is part of the Kaleidoscope Multi Academy Trust which includes Ashcombe, Becket, Hutton, St Martins, Crockerne and Worle Village. As part of this arrangement, you may be required to work at one of these schools or any additional school that may join the MAT in the future as business dictates.

Christ Church is a single class intake 210 place primary school in the centre of Weston-super-Mare. We have very close links with our local Church and actively promote Christian values throughout school life. At our last OFSTED (Spring 2023) we were judged to be a good school.

Christ Church C of E Primary School is committed to ensuring outstanding safeguarding procedures and promoting the welfare of children and any offer of employment will be conditional upon the outcome of an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references. In line with the Keeping Children Safe in Education regulations we will also undertake an online Google search for all shortlisted candidates.
