Teacher

Temporary post for 12 months initially. 

Wardle Trust is a highly successful Multi Academy Trust, situated in the West Pennine area, where community and faith schools work in partnership to serve our diverse local area.  The schools share the same drive and determination to promote the best possible academic standards, whilst developing children of unique character, preparing them well for their lives ahead.        

After expanding in September 2017, the Trust has 4 member schools: 

Wardle Academy (Secondary)

Kentmere Academy, St. James’ CofE Primary School, and St. Andrew’s CofE Primary School (Primary) 

St Andrew’s and St. James’ are yet to be inspected, however Wardle Academy have recently been judged ‘Good’ by Oftsed and Kentmere Academy have been recently judged ‘Outstanding’ in all areas.   

Wardle Trust are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and highly motivated NQT or RQT to join our dedicated and talented team at St James’ CofE Primary School, to provide additional teaching capacity to the school.    

Primarily, this role will focus on teaching alongside the Y6 teacher. This represents a unique opportunity for candidates to complete their NQT year alongside an experienced teacher, as well the opportunity to build on the career foundations of candidates who are RQT.
