Are you looking for an exciting opportunity to help realise our vision for Larkrise Primary School? We are particularly interested in receiving applications from candidates with experience or those new to a career in education. Do you share the school's values of Creativity, Kindness and Adventure? We are a school where 98% of parents would recommend the school to other parents and where 100% of staff feel that their work has a strong purpose and makes a positive difference in the lives of children and our families. Do you want a role where you will make a significant difference in children’s lives and futures? Larkrise Primary School needs an excellent practitioner with vision and a passion for working with our children.
Can you motivate and support children to learn? Can you work with the Larkrise team to work within Key Stage 1 or 2 and provide an excellent education? If so, we can offer the right candidate: enthusiastic children, passionate staff, committed PTA (Friends of Larkrise), and governors. Our leaders are ambitious for the staff, children and wider school community and are committed to your continued professional development and learning.
Our school is part of the River Learning Trust: Education has the power to change lives, communities and society for the better. At RLT we believe that we can achieve more for our pupils, trainees, staff and communities by working together rather than alone. All of the schools in RLT are united by a common belief in the benefits of working together and by our commitment to our shared principles.
OUR VISION is for our schools and SCITT to improve rapidly, continuously and sustainably: to be better faster together.
OUR ‘WHY?’ is that children and young people ‘only get one go’ in school, and therefore, as part of RLT we aim to ensure the best possible ‘go’ for our pupils.
OUR ‘HOW?’ is through the highest support and challenge for our schools and each other, underpinned by our principles.
Our employees benefit from a wide variety of support, including extensive continuing professional learning and development opportunities, wellbeing and staff networks and access to Defined Benefit Pension Schemes (TPS and LGPS) for all staff. For more information on what it is like to work for the Trust and the benefits you can access, please see our “Working in RLT” guide.
