Job Description:

At New Road Primary School, we believe every child has the right to excel in a vibrant, safe educational environment that enhances life chances and achieves aspirations. Our children are at the heart of everything we do and they are challenged and supported to achieve their very best.

A Growth Mind-set ethos underpins our learning, building on the belief that every child can learn, we just learn at different speeds. Our school motto is simple:

We are a one and a half form entry, Thrive Ambassador, multi-cultural, school and the children’s cultures are celebrated regularly. Some of our children even become Young Interpreters supporting each other in school.

Within KS1, the classes are taught through Continuous Provision and this gives the children the opportunity to explore and develop their curiosity alongside the development of skills and knowledge. The children love this approach to learning and they develop great independence and have lots of fun. This approach to learning results in wonderful attitudes which leads to rapid attainment in learning.

It is very important to us that our children have the support they need to achieve. All classes have a Teaching Assistant.

Would you enjoy the challenge of working in this inclusive environment?

We are looking for a creative, committed colleague to work as a class teacher in one of our KS1 classes.

What can we offer you?

The school offers good CPD opportunities and the development of staff is essential to our development. We work in partnership with other schools which means that our staff learn from others and share their own good practice. We also encourage staff to attend courses to develop their skills across the curriculum.

If you are interested in working at New Road, please do contact us, it is advised that you visit the school before you apply.

New Road Primary is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful candidates are subject to an enhanced disclosure from the Criminal Records Bureau.
