Albion Primary School is a popular and well-resourced school situated in the heart of Rotherhithe. We have a strong family ethos and serve a richly diverse community.

Albion Primary School is an inclusive multicultural school that is at the centre of the community and serves children from 3 years old to 11 years old. Being an ethnically diverse community affords opportunities for children to experience an enriched and cooperative environment. Individuality and teamwork are both celebrated in creative ways that stimulate active and inquisitive minds.

Albion has become a premier destination for children and families from the local area and beyond—a hub for accelerated education, community spirit, and excellence. Albion provides an enhanced and challenging curriculum in creative arts, foreign languages, math, science, history, geography, RE, DT, PE and computing. At Albion we aim high and provide opportunities for our children and staff that may not necessarily occur in other primary schools: for instance 8 children from Year 5 travelled to Hangzhou, China, to experience the culture and life in a Chinese school.

As well as there being 17 classrooms, there is a large hall, dance studio, counselling room, 6 group rooms, a forest school and garden area which houses our 8 chickens, a playground, a Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) and to top it off a beautiful rooftop playground/outdoor learning space.

At Albion we encourage our children to celebrate each other, both day to day in the classroom, and through regular achievement assemblies. We are also proud to run the Pupil Headteacher initiative, where two children are elected by their peers to lead the school for the day, linking to the British Values aspect of our curriculum. Our happy and motivated children really want to learn and achieve. Our collaborative and hard-working staff team are committed to providing the best opportunities for them.

We provide memorable experiences for our children within our curriculum both in school and out. We enrich our curriculum not only through our excellent class teachers, but with our subject specialists who have in-depth expertise in their field.

We are looking for an excellent, caring, fully qualified practitioner and will expect you to demonstrate outstanding classroom practice.
