Our school’s vision is to be ‘A Learning Family’. I am fully committed to the school’s vision of giving all children the opportunity to become the very best version of themselves and children’s early years of education are vital in this. Building effective relationships and showing dedication to our children is vital to this. We are looking for an excellent teacher who can bring a passion for all children to our team.
