We are looking to recruit a fixed-term, full time, Reception Class Teacher, from March 2019. We are seeking a committed, enthusiastic and talented teacher who thrives on challenge and wants to work with children who make you laugh and smile every day! The positions are available to newly qualified or experienced teachers.

Brookfields Primary is an exciting inner-city school with a fun and positive vibe. Our new Headteacher is passionate about teaching and learning and determined to make Brookfields a success.

You need to be a consistently good teacher, having the skills to work effectively in a team and ensuring your pupils achieve the best possible outcomes in their mixed-ability classes.

had been federated for several years. They were joined in January 2017 by Hodge Hill Primary School as a sponsored school and in November 2018 by Brookfields Primary School. Greet Teaching School is the fifth partner in the MAT. All are supported by CREATE CENTRAL, a growing team of specialists building the MAT’s infrastructure. The Trust is

relatively young but we have high aspirations for our pupils and staff, aiming to create futures for all.

Create Partnership Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS check is required for all successful applicants.

The vision for Create Partnership Trust encompasses the growth of an inspirational family of schools, built on a peer support and challenge model, so that barriers to optimum achievement are removed and where effective practice is systematically shared.

The Council is a fantastic place to work. You will find an organisation that is both challenging and supportive; with a leadership impatiently adventurous in its pursuit of excellence. 

There is a clear vision which is ensuring that the Council is working for communities today and building for tomorrow, we focus our resources on five key priorities:

  • A Prosperous Birmingham: through a focus on inclusive economic growth, tackling unemployment, attracting inward investment, and maximising the benefits of the Commonwealth Games.
  • An Inclusive Birmingham: through a focus on tackling poverty and inequality, empowering citizens, promoting diversity and civic pride, and supporting and enabling all children and young people to thrive.
  • A Safe Birmingham: through a focus on making the city safer, safeguarding vulnerable citizens, increasing affordable housing, and tackling homelessness.
  • A Healthy Birmingham: through a focus on tackling health inequalities, encouraging physical activity and healthy living, supporting mental health, and improving outcomes for adults with disabilities and older people.
  • A Green Birmingham: through a focus on street cleanliness, improving air quality, continuing the route to net zero, and becoming a city of nature.

We see the Council’s role as providing strategic leadership – that’s being able to visualise a new future for the city and equipping others to share our vision. We want to ensure the provision of services for all, so we can support those least able to support themselves by working with partners and putting citizens and neighbourhoods at the heart of our decision-making.

We are always looking for people who put the customer at the centre of their approach, with a commitment to excellence to help us achieve our vision.  We will support you to develop and thrive in your role, building a pathway for long-term success, with lots of development opportunities, such as apprenticeships.
