Shefford Lower School has an excellent reputation as a friendly, thriving and values-based school. With over 500 children, we are a very well resourced, and vibrant setting. We pride ourselves in our warm ‘family’ atmosphere, so that both children and staff develop and achieve their potential.

The ideal candidate will have an inclusive philosophy, an energy for change and a love for learning.
