  • A workplace underpinned by our school values.

  • A commitment to your professional development.

  • An attractive, well-maintained, and well-resourced school.

  • Supportive governors and parents.

We are looking for candidates who:

  • Are warm, caring, patient and place the needs of the children first.

  • Are self-motivated.

  • Have excellent communication skills.

  • Are committed and passionate about learning – for children and for themselves.

  • Have high expectations of behaviour as well as achievement.

  • Are flexible and enjoy working as part of a team.
