As a growing organisation - consisting of pre, infant, junior and primary schools - Waterton Academy Trust’s main aim is to ensure all children receive the education that they deserve, and Lee Brigg is very proud to be part of this.

Our school is in an extremely strong, stable position and therefore we would like to hear from candidates who are Early Career Teachers (ECTs) to experienced Upper Pay Scale practitioners.

At Lee Brigg, we work hard to provide a supportive and stimulating environment where every child can reach their full potential and where children can develop independence, confidence, self-esteem, and a lifelong love of learning. We have high expectations and seek to impart in all our children a strong sense of responsibility for their own behaviour, and a respect for the rights of others.

We look forward to receiving your application.

Warm Regards,

Luke Welsh
