We are looking to appoint exceptional candidates to our dedicated school team.

We are keen to receive applications from experienced as well as early career teachers – we know that both add a dynamic to school that will support our continued growth and development.
Our Offer To Every Teacher

This is a school with energy and ambition. Our curriculum is fully resourced with more than 800 sequenced lessons across the wider curriculum, reducing unnecessary workload and allowing teachers to focus on great teaching. Pupils are taught in ability groups for reading, writing and mathematics so instruction is sharp and progress is accelerated. In the afternoons children learn through projects, visits and experiences that broaden horizons. Every child visits London each year alongside a wide range of local visits that bring learning to life.
Opportunity matters here. Every pupil spends time gardening each week, learning to grow, create and think beyond the classroom. Technology is used to widen experiences, not replace them. One lesson might take pupils through the streets of ancient Rome using virtual reality, the next to the mountains of Machu Picchu.
What truly defines the school, however, is our staff. We recruit people for their belief in children, their determination and their willingness to keep improving their craft.
Leaders are visible in classrooms and coaching is central to how we develop teachers. Professional development is real and purposeful, with opportunities for NPQs, specialist training and leadership development across the St Mary's Partnership of Schools. Staff wellbeing matters too, which is why all staff receive a full subscription to the CALM wellbeing app for themselves and their household.
If you want a quiet, predictable role, this will not be the school for you. If you want to work with talented colleagues, teach children who deserve the very best and be part of a school that is ambitious for its community, this may be exactly the opportunity you are looking for.
We strongly encourage visits so you can see the school in action. Please contact
