Our last Ofsted inspection graded the school as ‘Good’ in all areas, MCPA is ‘a school with a ‘heart’; a kind, caring and supportive community.
The school has a vibrant and inclusive environment; parents are well engaged, staff and children enjoy working and learning at the school. Teachers at the school are well supported; We use ‘Maths No Problem’, ‘Read Write Inc’ and ‘Talk for Writing’ approaches to support our teaching in being the best it can be. Teachers are however encouraged to develop their own individual styles.
Who are we looking for?
First and foremost, we are looking for an excellent teacher who will make a positive contribution to the teaching team and provide excellent learning opportunities to all of our children.
As an inclusive school, we are keen to recruit staff with a commitment and ability to meet the needs of all children in our community.

If I’m still interested, what should I do next?
We think that applying for a new role should always be seen as a 2-way process, you have to be right for us, but the school also has to be right for you. So if you are interested in applying, please do feel free to get in touch, come for a look around, or have a chat about the role.
