Information

Kingsfold Primary School wishes to appoint a passionate teacher for 3 days a week (0.6 equivalent) in Key Stage 2 to support the progress, attainment and development of our pupils. Following a recent retirement, this is an exciting time of change within our teaching staff. 

The posts would be suitable for a wide range of candidates on main pay scales, from ECTs through to experienced teachers. The role of the postholder will be to deliver high standards of teaching, developing exciting, innovative and effective lessons for pupils, which focus on their next steps of development. All staff are also expected to foster the positive behaviour and attitudes of all pupils. 

In addition, the successful candidate would be required to embrace our school motto of ‘Pride in all we do’ as well as endeavouring to ensure that all children achieve their potential across a range of areas, not simply academic. We are excited about the prospect of adding a new teacher to our welcoming, enthusiastic team, who are always open to new ideas. In return, they would be well supported by the experienced colleagues already employed by the school.

Our School is a smaller than average, with some mixed age classes and serves the Kingsfold area of Penwortham, where our catchment caters to a diverse range of pupils, contributing to a dynamic school community. We pride ourselves on our close working relationship with our parents, who we invite into school on a regular basis and communicate with via our ‘open door’ approach.

Academically we maintain a high standard, but this does not mean that our emphasis is on academic success to the exclusion of all else. We believe that school should be a happy, exciting place and, to support this, have developed a carefully crafted curriculum with the aims of building resilient, inquisitive learners who accept challenge.
