Key Stage 2 Teacher

Sawley Junior School is a great place for children to aspire, achieve and thrive as one of the four primary schools that make up Willows Academy Trust. The four schools combined to become a Trust in November 2014 presenting exciting opportunities to improve local education as we draw upon our collective experiences, talents and resources.

We are seeking to appoint a teacher who is committed to improving standards and ensuring every child is challenged to achieve their maximum potential: someone who has the skills and desire to develop and nurture every child in their care.

Teachers within our school benefit from:

• Excellent CPD, from NQT to leadership level – CPD is provided both from within the wider trust and via external providers: leadership roles are      advertised internally initially
• Supportive, caring colleagues and a positive, team-based atmosphere
• Strong, forward-thinking and compassionate leadership

Our pupils are enthusiastic, keen to learn and well behaved. They love engaging in hands-on, creative learning opportunities and respect teachers who are fair, have clear and consistent boundaries, are caring and make their learning fun. We are a hard working team looking for someone who is as committed as we are to ensuring that all children receive the quality education they deserve.

If you are a dedicated and reflective practitioner who strives to ensure that good quality teaching and learning takes place in the classroom then we look forward to welcoming your application. 

The post is available from September 2018.

Visits to our school are positively encouraged: you are warmly welcomed to come along and view us in action. Please telephone the school office to make an appointment. Please note we do not arrange visit appointments via email.

Applicants are requested to post/email their completed applications directly to the school.

Application forms can be downloaded from the school website www.sawleyjunior.co.uk or requested by e-mail at info@sawley-jun.derbyshire.sch.uk.
