Lower KS2 Teacher

Aldro is an outstanding boys’ day and boarding preparatory school near Godalming in Surrey. There are about 200 pupils aged 7-13 in the school; approximately 65 of them board, many boys trying boarding throughout the school whether they head off to boarding or day schools after Aldro. Almost all of the boys stay to sit Common Entrance at 13+, but the school also has an outstanding record of academic excellence with many scholarship awards won at 13+ (many of them academic): 30 awards have been won over the past two years to schools such as Charterhouse, Cranleigh, Eton, Harrow, King Edward’s Witley, Lancing, RGS Guildford, Sherborne, St. John’s, Tonbridge, Wellington, Winchester and Worth.

The school offers excellent career progression, mentoring and opportunity to develop your interests and immerse yourself into the wider curriculum and become part of the Aldro family.

Aldro is also committed to breadth of education and excellent results are achieved in sport, music, drama and chess. The school runs an extensive activity programme ranging from cookery to pistol shooting, dodgeball to origami. Aldro’s Christian foundation is a central part of the school’s ethos, underpinning the values of the school; an attractive Chapel is amongst the excellent facilities available which include a very recent multi-purpose sports hall and a fully equipped theatre.
