This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the next phase of a successful federation’s journey. We are looking for an ambitious person to join our happy team and welcome applications from both NQTs and experienced practitioners from all primary Key Stages.   We can be flexible to accommodate year group preferences as we want to complement the skills and knowledge within our existing team.

• Children who demonstrate outstanding behaviours for learning and are a pleasure to be around
• A variety of high quality professional development opportunities, with local and national partners
• Excellent school grounds with forest school, where opportunities for high quality outdoor learning are facilitated

We welcome visits to both schools. Please ring 01795 842344 to arrange an appointment at either school.
