About the school

This school is currently 2 form entry and very well established in the local community. They currently hold a 'Good' rating from Ofsted (2017) and the Head is very well respected across the LEA. The school prides itself in offering a rich and engaging curriculum. They offer a well-rounded education, offering a wide range of opportunities which both enrich and enhance their experiences in school.

Results in the past two years have been below expectations however they score well above average progress scores across all areas which goes to show the tremendous work the staff do in the school. They need a driven individual to join their KS2 team and gain incremental increases in KS2 results. They are open to someone with leadership experience and have the potential to offer a TLR or a position on the SLT.

This is a friendly school and one where everyone is striving to make the necessary strides forward. Extensive plans have been put in place to ensure all staff have the necessary resources and support to be the best they can. However, it must be mentioned that this can often be a challenging and demanding environment to work in, the school are often looking for those who want to make a difference and are willing to work incredibly hard. The school has lower than average EAL and SEN but higher than average free school meals.

About the role

They adopt a team teach process which means that responsibility is shared among the team, leaning to a better work life balance. They are a tough class, so someone experienced with good behaviour management are encouraged to apply. The results across school were low last year despite the children making incredible progress.
