Are you an NQT or experienced teacher?

We currently have a teaching vacancy in KS2 at Sturry CE Primary School. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established team in an outstanding school.

As the sponsor school of The Stour Academy Trust, Sturry CE Primary School is at the heart of the collaborative network of teachers within the Trust and due to its growing nature, opportunities for career development at other schools are available in the future.

With strong links with Canterbury Christ Church University, The Stour Academy Trust’s NQT induction process ensures that the appropriate guidance, support, training, expectations and observations are provided through a structured but flexible individualised programme.

The first year of teaching is a considerable significance in the professional development of a new teacher and this programme will enable you to form a secure foundation upon which a successful teaching career can be built.

The Trust’s programme for NQT’s was recently inspected and graded as outstanding. Inspectors said:

• the quality of CPD provided by the Trust is a strength.
• the NQTs feel very supported.
• Many opportunities to observe others both within school and across the trust.
• Great importance is placed on matching the mentor and NQT to ensure that personalities and experience complement each other.
• NQT support is outstanding

Some quotes from our current and past NQT’s:

‘The on-going support and training is continually helping to develop my knowledge/skills in specific areas’.

‘The Head teacher and my mentor are exceptionally helpful.’

‘The Stour Academy Trust has made my NQT experience less stressful by providing experienced mentors and devising an NQT programme which will help me achieve my targets.’

‘Having the right support systems such as weekly NQT meetings with mentors was a massive help to make the transition into Primary teaching’

The Stour Academy Trust is able to ensure that NQTs have the very best opportunities to succeed during their induction year and beyond. Our collaborative approach allows for fantastic professional development and career opportunities for more experienced teachers. Join our team today.

Visits are essential: we will be holding group tours of the school at 1.30pm on 03/05/17 and 11/05/17. Please contact the office manager (sturry@stouracademytrust.org.uk) to make an appointment.
