Class Teacher - EYFS, KS1 or KS2

We are keen to appoint a ‘quality first,’ class teacher to join our passionate and successful staff team. 

Hillingdon Primary School was inspected by Ofsted in March this year and we were judged to be an ‘outstanding’ academy where ‘Pupils flourish … They benefit from highly positive experiences and achieve exceptionally well’. We have wonderful pupils in our school and Ofsted commented that their behaviour is ‘exemplary’.

We are determined to maintain our outstanding status for our pupils, who deserve an excellent education. We know we can only do this by providing an environment in which teachers enjoy working and workload is considered. Teachers work within a supportive team overseen by a Year Group Leader. All subject planning is in place on a Google drive for teachers to adapt to the needs of their pupils. Specialist subject teachers cover PPA; there is a pool of class learning support assistants; and administrative support to manage data collection and input. Our Early Years team also includes experienced nursery nurses and learning support assistants to support pupils and teachers, alongside specialist Early Years PPA cover.  

We are a large primary school and we take pride in supporting our staff to develop their leadership and management skills as part of our internal succession planning. We have a successful track record of enabling career progression: many of our teachers eventually move on to middle and senior leadership positions due to the opportunities we provide to support a teacher’s development and career. In their recent report, Ofsted also commented that ‘Staff are exceptionally positive about working at Hillingdon Primary School. They are proud to work in a school that cares for them as individuals. They appreciate the many professional development opportunities on offer’.

The school is proud to be part of the Elliot Foundation, a multi-academy trust specialising in primary education. We work with other academies and like-minded professionals for the benefit of our students. Further information regarding The Elliot Foundation can be found at: http://www.elliotfoundation.co.uk.
