Job overview

Do you want the chance to work in a forward thinking Multi Academy Trust that always puts the children first?

We are looking for a cover teacher to join our team at Hill Farm Primary School.

You will be joining us at an exciting time as we build on the wide ranging improvements we have secured over the last three years, in our ‘good’ and growing school. We are very proud of our dedicated and caring staff team; hard-working and well-behaved children; vibrant learning environment and supportive parents and carers. We are committed to ensuring that children of all abilities and backgrounds achieve their very best in everything they do. We are also committed to growing the talent in all our staff, enabling them to flourish and succeed.

This is either a full time or part time post to cover classes for PPA and staff release from Reception to year 6. This is not a class teacher post so the successful candidate will be creative with a very positive, ‘can do’ attitude, committed to raising aspiration.

If you are looking to get onto the right teacher training programme for you, this opportunity will be a valuable stepping stone to gain some really worthwhile experience. Alternatively you might be an HLTA with cover experience across both KS1 and KS2 looking for your next step.

We are looking for you to:

  • Cover in class for all year groups.
  • Be passionate about children’s learning.
  • Be dedicated, organised and enthusiastic.
  • Be committed to adding value and achieving progress for all pupils.
  • Enjoy being creative and having fun with our pupils.
  • Make a difference to the prospects of all our pupils.

As a large, three form entry primary school working, as part of a multi-academy trust, we can offer:

  • An enhanced salary for a candidate with appropriate expertise.
  • Children who enjoy learning.
  • The opportunity to work alongside experienced leaders.
  • A pledge to grow your talent through quality CPD with the support of our Trust and its Teaching School.
  • Clear succession planning to enable staff to develop leadership skills for the future.
  • A commitment to staff wellbeing and recognition.
  • Dedicated and caring staff.
  • A range of benefits which includes cycle to work and childcare voucher schemes, free parking and an employee discount scheme.

If you are looking for a rewarding role where you can really make a difference, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!

Hill Farm is an increasingly popular, large three form entry primary school and Nursery in the North West of Coventry. 

We are passionate about our children having access to teaching and learning experiences of the highest quality in all areas and at all ages. Our curriculum is relevant, challenging and engaging and our children love to learn. Behaviour at our school is very good and parents/carers are supportive of all that we do.

In September 2013, Hill Farm converted to sponsored academy status as part of the Castle Phoenix Multi-Academy Trust, the lead school of which is Caludon Castle Secondary School in Wyken, Coventry. Being part of this Trust gives us unrivalled opportunities to work in partnership with a secondary school and share best practice. As a strategic partner in the Castle Phoenix Teaching School Alliance, we also have access to a wide range of training and professional development opportunities.  Our children are also able to benefit from making use of some of Caludon Castle’s specialist facilities to enhance curriculum provision.

In April 2015, Ofsted judged Hill Farm to be good in all five categories. In particular, they highlighted the good teaching and strong leadership, noting that “Teachers have high expectations of pupils’ work and plan interesting activities which engage and enthuse them”.

We are extremely proud of this outcome and it has given us a positive momentum to move forward and continue to build on our many strengths.

We feel that Hill Farm is an exciting and vibrant place for children to learn and grow.  Our overall aim is to improve the school so that we are seen as one of the best schools in Coventry. This will be because:

  • Our children will achieve personal excellence in their learning.
  • Our children will develop as happy, confident, independent learners who enjoy coming to school and thrive personally, socially and emotionally as a result of our high quality provision.
  • Our parents and carers will be an integral part of the school and their child’s learning.
  • Our friendly, welcoming and inclusive ethos will ensure that our school sits at the heart of the community.
