• Is reflective, motivated and committed to continual professional growth
• Enjoys working collaboratively and contributing to wider school life

Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School is proud to be part of The Dunstan Catholic Educational Trust, offering excellent professional development and collaboration across a family of schools throughout the South West.
