We value the roles of each individual within our school community - staff, pupils, parents, carers, governors and visitors - in achieving the best for all of our children.

We continue our journey of transformation in developing a learning community where pupils are engaged in developing the knowledge and skills needed for life in the 21st Century.

We are looking for a passionate and energetic team member who will:
