As a three-form entry primary school, you will be well-supported by an established year group team.

Our most recent Ofsted report graded our behaviour and safety as outstanding and we pride ourselves on providing a nurturing and caring environment in which to learn.

It is an ideal time to be joining us, as school life begins to return to normal and whilst we continually review our provision to meet the needs of our children in our school. Our curriculum is centred on a thematic, topic-based approach with enquiry and outdoor and adventure learning being pivotal in its delivery. This post will include subject leadership, either as part of a core-subject leadership team, or as a foundation subject leader; you should highlight your curriculum strengths as part of your application and demonstrate the impact you have had.
