• Enthusiastic children;
• A well-resourced environment and a strong commitment to School Improvement;
• A firm commitment to the Continuing Professional Development of all staff;
• Friendly and supportive working environment, with opportunities to progress in your career.

We consider this to be an exciting opportunity for any applicant looking to develop and who wish to work in a supportive and inclusive environment where commitment to development of the whole child is paramount.
