Rosslyn Park Primary and Nursery School is seeking to appoint an excellent KS2 teaching practitioner who has high expectations of pupil progress and a drive for self-development.

 

Rosslyn Park is a large primary school with over 600 children on roll and we pride ourselves on supporting each one of them and their families. Our children feel valued and have a sense of belonging to the school and the local diverse community. We believe strongly in developing the whole child and ensure that our knowledge-rich curriculum is supported by strong pastoral provision.

 

In recent years Rosslyn has received the Wellbeing School Award, the Arts Platinum Award and the History QM in recognition of the fantastic work we do. We work in partnership with a wide range of organisations such as Place2Be, Royal Shakespeare Company, Nottingham Contemporary, The University of Nottingham, and provide inclusive and accessible activities for everyone.

 

We enhance the curriculum by a whole-school digital approach. Our children have a 1:1 iPad in KS2 and 1:3 in EYFS and KS1, and have access to a variety of learning platforms at school and at home.

 

Rosslyn’s teachers and support staff “speak effusively about the quality and quantity of training they receive. As a result, staff are deeply reflective about their own practice and teaching across the school is consistently good.” (Ofsted). At Rosslyn, leaders place a strong emphasis on coaching, staff training and professional development and as outlined in a recent school’s quality assurance review: “Senior staff display extremely high level of empathic leadership.”

 

We are looking for inspirational teachers who are committed to creating a stimulating learning environment through excellent classroom practice.

●       Be a consistently good / outstanding primary teacher

●       Be passionate about teaching and learning and making a difference to every child.

●       Care passionately about children and their development whilst still driving forward pupil progress and achievement.

●       value a team working approach and be keen to contribute and share your skills with colleagues

●       Have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, able to build on and maintain strong relationships with staff, parents and carers, children, governors and the local and wider community.

In return we offer:

•            A welcoming community and a highly motivated, professional staff team that are driven

              towards continuously raising standards.

•            Excellent professional development opportunities through an extensive range of network groups and other Transform Trust initiatives

•            Calm and purposeful learning environments

•            Excellent partnerships between pupils, staff, parents, governors and community

•            A forward-thinking approach to teaching and learning throughout the school

•            Career opportunities as part of a successful Multi Academy Trust

We are a very large primary school situated in Aspley in the North of Nottingham, with just under 700 children on roll. Despite being such a large school, we pride ourselves on supporting individual children and families. We feel it is essential that every child feels valued, is well supported and has a sense of belonging.

We are proud to be a member of the Transform Multi Academy Trust and work closely as a partnership of schools in order to ensure the best possible outcomes for all children.

Additionally we also work closely with our local family of schools, the Primary 6 Partnership, on a number of exciting projects that enhance and enrich the school curriculum.

Our school was built in 2006 and we have invested heavily in ensuring that the building reflects the investment that we put into our children. This has involved creating four houses – Castle, Sherwood, Trent and Highfields. Children collect house points for the work they produce and the winning house is rewarded every half term.

Our Vision, Ethos and Values:

A successful vision for inner city education must recognise that the needs of the pupils cannot be addressed without acknowledging the needs of the community.

Respect, value and utilise the diversity within our community.

Work in partnership with other establishments and agencies to improve community provision.

We will:

Support, not blame.

Provide a safe, secure and happy environment for learning.

Know ourselves and help others to know us.

We will:

Review our practices and procedures regularly, stringently and honestly.

Use data to inform ourselves of our successes and areas to develop.

Involve our stakeholders in our plans for improvement.

Be open to constructive criticism and new ideas.

Publicise our successes and be proactive with the Media.

We will work as one staff, one team, with one common goal – to succeed for the children of Aspley..

A school that succeeds plays a part in raising the esteem of a community. A community that believes in itself succeeds.

We aspire to be a school that good teachers will want to work in, that committed parents will want to send their children to and that pupils will succeed in.
