About West Buckland Community Primary School

Why work at West Buckland?

“We are a small, caring and nurturing team who make every child feel valued as part of the West Buckland family. Everyone here has a voice with children given experiences and opportunities from staff who strive to create memories and embed fun.”

West Buckland is a four-class primary school, plus Nursery, located in a village setting near to Wellington. We get to know each family and build a supportive, caring and friendly environment where happy and successful children can flourish, grow and learn. Our setting provides a welcoming, happy and safe place, where children are encouraged to try new and exciting things. Our supportive and inclusive team create a learning environment that stimulates conversation, develops curiosity, allowing children to discover their interests and grow their love of learning.

I believe our community feel and spirit is what makes West Buckland such a great place to be, everyone is passionate about our visions and values which I would encourage you to take a closer look at. Our curriculum is an enquiry based one that is built upon creating children who are respectful, worldly aware and both team and individually successful.

If you are considering joining our team please view our website, call us and come for a visit. It's a very special place and we'd love you to see and feel it for yourself before deciding if its right for you. Our staff go that extra mile without a second thought. We are more like a family than colleagues where nothing is too much effort.

I’ve really enjoyed my first term working at The Huish Trust. It has been hard work but I have been really well supported by my mentor and the whole school team have made me feel so welcome.

The Huish Trust is a great place to work. We are all clear on what we need to achieve but I have the support and encouragement to be innovative, to try new things and work in a way that brings out the best in me as a teacher.
