Our children love to learn, and we need people who recognise the potential of children to surprise us every day.

So, the sky really will be the limit and your benefits will be the best you’ll find anywhere, including an excellent pension scheme, a curated wellbeing programme and generous shopping discounts that can save you money on everything from your supermarket shop to your summer holiday.
Visits and tours of the school are warmly welcome.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and we expect all staff to share this commitment.
