About Us

We are a welcoming and inclusive one‑form entry primary school where children are at the heart of everything we do. Our team is dedicated to ensuring every child — including those with additional needs — can achieve their full potential. Staff wellbeing, professional growth and strong relationships shape our culture. As an ECT here, you won’t just be starting your career; you’ll be joining a team that invests in you.

• A supportive, approachable mentor who will champion your development
• Opportunities to observe experienced teachers and learn from best practice
• A positive, inclusive environment where wellbeing truly matters
• Pupils who are enthusiastic, kind and eager to learn

What We’re Looking For

• A teacher who brings energy, creativity and a genuine love of learning
• Someone who builds strong relationships with pupils, families and colleagues
• A reflective practitioner eager to grow and develop
• A commitment to inclusive, high‑quality teaching for every child
• A team player who contributes to a warm, collaborative school culture

Your Role

You’ll lead learning in your own classroom, supported every step of the way. You’ll plan engaging lessons, create a positive learning environment and help children thrive academically and personally. We’ll give you the space to grow, the guidance to succeed and the encouragement to become the teacher you aspire to be.
