Bratton Primary School is a village school, set in spacious grounds in the heart of Bratton, near Westbury. You will be joining a growing village school, which received an Ofsted Good judgement in May 2017 and which sits at the heart of a supportive community.

The Governors are looking to appoint an outstanding, dynamic and ambitious teacher committed to moving the school from Good to Outstanding. The advertised maternity cover post will be for a full time class teacher, working in Key Stage 2.

We are committed to our children’s education, from Reception to Year 6.

We are committed to reflective, open education, doing so with integrity, focussing on ensuring that all members of our school community are aware of the endless possibilities they have to grow and develop, both within our school and beyond. Children at Bratton Primary will leave us being confident, curious and considerate individuals who are socially and academically equipped to meet the challenges of the modern world and it is our job to ensure they all aspire to the highest levels of personal achievement and development.
