Together with the creative two-year curriculum which contributes to pupils’ enjoyment of learning, there is increasingly excellent progress in lessons and end of year results. As 90% of our pupils reached or exceeded the expected standard in reading, writing and mathematics at the end of Key Stage 2 in 2023, we are now in the top 2% of primary schools in the country.

We are looking for someone who is:

  • passionate and committed to promoting high standards in teaching and learning

  • enthusiastic, flexible and has a positive approach
  • is creative, innovative and passionate about learning
  • is organised, an excellent team player and keen to contribute to the life of the school and the wider community

Staff are overwhelmingly positive about leaders’ consideration and support for their workload and well-being. They enjoy working at the school. They see it as a ‘family’ and are committed to supporting each other.’ (Ofsted, July 2022) We invest heavily in staff development, supporting and valuing the importance of a healthy work-life balance.
