What will I be doing?
Due to the internal promotion of the current postholder within our school, we are all looking forward to meeting our newest colleague. The Assistant Headteacher will work with the Headteacher to ensure our children receive the best education possible. We know that our school can only be as good as our staff team.
What kind of experience or qualifications do I need?
We are welcoming applications from Teachers or current Leaders who will strive to maintain the golden thread of high expectations which runs through all Preston Primary Academy Trust schools. We are open to applications from Teachers who share this vision; we do not have an ideal expectation of years within teaching for this role. Ideally, the successful candidate would have Year 6 experience or be capable of delivering excellent teaching in this year group.
What is in it for me?
A considerable reduction in teacher workload has been achieved alongside fantastic results; we strongly believe these two elements work well together. Our school was placed eighth highest in Somerset for KS2 results this year. Our children are respectful and exhibit excellent behaviour. Our most recent Ofsted report stated, “Aspirations for pupils are evident in the school’s values and ambitious curriculum.” We continue to build on this success each day in order that our children leave us as academically curious life-long learners who are confident and thoughtful citizens.
DBS check
This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check and other pre-employment checks.
