We are a happy, friendly, caring, nurturing and busy school where we seek to go ‘Beyond Expectations’ in all we do. We are a large primary school, with approximately 400 children on roll. We are part of the Aspire Multi-Academy Trust – a group of 8 schools who share a ‘Take Care’ ethos and vision. Our core purpose is the Profound Personal Development of our children. We have a clear ‘Values Based’ approach to learning and through our exciting and creative curriculum, both in and out of the classroom, we can truly say, ‘It’s Never Boring Here’. There is always plenty going on in our school.
We are looking for an exceptional Lower KS2 Class Teacher, 3 days a week job share – Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, to join our Kirkby Woodhouse family who can bring the following:
