The Leadership Team at Valley Invicta Primary School at East Borough, are seeking to appoint a dynamic and inspirational teacher to join our dedicated and enthusiastic team. This post is ideally suited to someone who would like to work in Year 5 or 6, however, there is room for some flexibility.

  • Regular personal CPD and training, including mentoring
  • Motivated, well behaved children
  • Committed staff and leadership team
  • A supportive Governing Body
  • Opportunities to lead whole school projects to effect long term change

We benefit from being part of the Valley Invicta Academy Trust by having close links with the secondary schools enabling collaborative projects and school visits. Teachers and TAs have joint CPD sessions including moderation, and there are many opportunities for pupils to take part in a range of sporting and arts events.

If you believe that you are the person we are looking for, please contact Mrs T. Hennon (Office Manager) on 01622 754633 to arrange a visit to the school.
