Working with our dedicated team of teachers and support staff, well-behaved and motivated children and supportive parents and governors, we promise to support and develop you as you take the next steps in your teaching career.

  • Understand what makes effective learning
  • Be a learner themselves – open to challenge and the exploration of new approaches.
  • Be a committed team member, show initiative and proactively work to improve their practice.
  • Promote the principles of inclusion by enabling every child to overcome barriers to learning in order to achieve.
  • Have very high expectations of behaviour and be committed to establishing positive relationships with every child.
  • Deliver an innovative and creative curriculum that engages children and builds their resilience
  • Have experience of subject leadership
  • Have a great sense of humour

We offer:

  • A small friendly, but outwardly looking, school environment with close community links.
  • A brilliant, supportive and dedicated staff team.
  • A school that cares about your workload and your wellbeing.
  • Children who are enthusiastic learners with supportive families.
  • A school that is committed to helping staff develop through excellent CPD and working with colleagues in other schools through the DEALT Academy and Deal Learning Alliance (DLA).
  • A school that is passionate about learning.

We are committed to safer recruitment and the protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Appointment is subject to satisfactory enhanced DBS, reference checks and proof of the right to work in the UK. We are committed to promoting equality and welcome applications from all sections of the community.
