The Aspire Learning Federation was established in March 2022 between Elm Park Primary School and The RJ Mitchell Primary School. Both schools have a highly inclusive philosophy. We set high expectations for all our pupils and provide high quality pastoral care and support for our most vulnerable pupils. Anyone applying for this post will be employed by the Aspire Learning Federation and may therefore be required to work across both schools. In the first instance, this post is to work at Elm Park Primary School.
Our motto is ‘aspiring to be the best we can be!’ which we try to live by every day. We want to ‘grow’ good people, who are inspired to make a difference to their lives and the lives of others. Our behaviour management philosophy is based on the ‘restorative’ approach. We provide our children with a creative and innovative curriculum that embeds basic solid skills. We have a bright and modern school building and we are a ‘Google Champion’ school, as digital technology plays a pivotal role in teaching and learning across the curriculum. We take a personalised approach to the curriculum which promotes self-challenge and independence in learning, as well as inclusion for all, whilst developing key life skills so that our children can become confident, independent and understanding individuals, who are well prepared for life as global citizens. We want the very best for our children and are prepared to work hard to achieve this vision.
We are looking for a teacher who loves their job with a passion, is tech-savvy and understands how children learn and are outstanding in their practice as a result. We can offer you the opportunity to develop outstanding practice as a teacher and within your subject leadership role, a supportive staff team, as well as a forward thinking educational environment in which to work.
Please see a copy of the job profile for further details regarding the role and responsibilities of the job as well as a copy of our Professional Skills Level Descriptors outlining the skills for a Band 1-2 teacher.
Informal visits to Elm Park School are warmly welcomed and can be arranged by telephoning the Office Manager, Mrs Cath Bragger on 01708 451463.
