We have maternity cover roles available from April 2018 in Year Four and in Reception. These will initially be temporary maternity posts lasting at least six months, however there is a good chance that positions may be extended further, and that positions of responsibility may also become available for the right candidate. 

Our school is an innovative collaboration between an excellent community primary and a family of four outstanding independent preparatory schools, based in Parson’s Green, London. We are a vibrant and inclusive school with a clear focus on enabling children to become confident, independent and thoughtful learners.

We have based our school on Four Cornerstones: 

‘Be Kind’ - reflecting our emphasis on values education

‘Learn to Learn’ - emphasising the importance of metacognition at the Academy

‘Think Globally’ - outlining our inclusive, international outlook 

And ‘Create Beauty’ - defining the importance of Mastery Learning, collaboration and craftsmanship at our school. 

The successful candidate will be able to enthuse and inspire our children, be keen to learn alongside all of us, and have a 'can do' approach to school life.

These posts could be suitable for those seeking Curriculum Leadership responsibilities, with TLR available for the right candidate. We would be particularly interested in hearing from people with a strength in Mathematics, Computing and Blended Learning.
