Class teacher

Sutton Courtenay C of E Primary School prides itself on combining traditional values with a modern and vibrant vision.  We are in the heart of our local community, welcoming children and families from all faiths, and none.

We have a strong Christian ethos underpinned by a core set of aims and values which is encapsulated in our motto: Love life; love learning; love one another. Our rich curriculum has been designed by us, for us, so that our inclusive and ambitious vision gives every child strong foundations to contribute wherever they are.

The talented staff team are passionate about teaching and learning in order to provide pupils with the skills to allow them to reach their potential and beyond. We provide a creative curriculum built on solid foundations and enriched with first hand experiences so that each child becomes a successful and resilient learner.

We are committed to continuous professional development and have wide-ranging training and development opportunities. For Early Careers Teachers this takes the form of a carefully designed mentoring programme. For experienced teachers, and those returning to teaching, there is a comprehensive CPD provision in place.

We are also mindful of the competing demands people face in their lives so are happy to consider part-time applications. If you are not familiar with Oxfordshire, we would recommend that you take a look at: Living in Oxfordshire – Information for Teachers
