Everything we do at Sutton Valence Primary School is underpinned by our enduring mission:

Our mission is to ensure we all participate in the constant quest of knowledge, learning and adventure so that each individual can build upon their core strengths to aspire to make a real difference.

The pupils, staff and Governors wish to appoint an enthusiastic, dedicated and highly motivated Early Years teacher. We need someone who is excited and interested in the constant challenge of Early Years education; someone who is dedicated to bringing the very best to the pupils of Sutton Valence Primary School.

You must:

  • Have children at the centre of everything that you do
  • Be inspiring and creative
  • Be committed to creating the best possible learning experience
  • Be dedicated to developing the whole child
  • Have a passion for developing other adults alongside the children

Our Early Years teacher will be responsible for the innovation and the creative curriculum, ensuring that the curriculum enhances and secures learning at every level across all areas. You will need to ensure that you can contribute to creating a learning environment that nurtures our wonderful pupils helping them achieve their individual potential.

We can offer you:

  • Pupils who are well behaved, who are regularly congratulated for their manners and enthusiasm.
  • Friendly, dedicated and passionate staff
  • CPD tailored to your needs to enable you to meet the schools and pupils needs
  • Progressive and innovative thinking
  • Parents who are involved in their children’s learning
  • An exciting curriculum and great opportunities to develop both the pupils and yourself
  • An enabling, ‘can-do’ culture in which to learn and grow
  • A positive, happy and friendly working environment
  • Traditional values with contemporary aspirations

Sutton Valence Primary School has been on quite a journey to be in its now stable position. Overall we have been graded as an RI school however if you read the full report (Nov ’15) you will read we have made, and continue to make, good progress; aspiring as a good or better school at our next inspection. 

Sutton Valence is a village primary developing links with its community and a wider audience. We have a dedicated Governing Body who are supportive in the schools journey. We are at the stage where it would be fantastic timing for a new teacher to join us allowing the successful applicant to fully contribute in our next steps. We are working towards a Thinking Skills school alongside Forest School work with our talented and well-behaved pupils who are open to everything that is planned for and with them.

Visits to our school are encouraged. Please telephone to make an appointment with the Headteacher, Marianne Terry.
