WANT TO WORK IN A DYNAMIC AND VIBRANT WORKPLACE? FEEL LIKE A CHANGE? RELOCATING TO BIRMINGHAM? PERHAPS RETURNING TO TEACHING?

Due to the retirement and the promotion of current members of staff, we are looking to recruit two permanent class teachers (full or part-time). We have one position available for a suitable KS1 class teacher, and another for a suitable KS2 class teacher. We are looking for ambitious, motivated and knowledgeable teachers who can inspire our pupils to learn. To apply for this position you will need to have completed your NQT year.

This is an exciting time to join Greet. We are a school which has a strong reputation for pupil academic success, innovation and staff development. We offer prospective staff good facilities, high standard CPD, and the opportunity to join an experienced and welcoming team of staff. Our families are supportive and have high aspirations for their children. Therefore, our pupils are well behaved and have a very positive attitude to learning. I have enjoyed working here that much that I came as the school's Deputy Head Teacher and now find myself as its Head of School.

An informal discussion with myself, Mr S. Mason - Head of School or a visit to our school is warmly welcomed.

Create Partnership Trust was formed in September 2016 by Greet Primary School and Conway Primary School. They were joined in January 2017 by Hodge Hill Primary School and 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 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.

Our school is proud to be a partner of the Greet Teaching School Alliance. We are committed to investing in the Continuous Professional & Leadership Development of our staff in order to enable them to achieve the highest standards. Our NQTs are enrolled on the TSA’s year-long NQT Induction Programme to support their progress in the NQT year. Other staff have the opportunity to participate in appropriate elements of the career development pathway offered by the TSA.

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.

In return, we offer you excellent terms and conditions, generous annual leave, a great pension scheme, well-being support, annual travel passes and discounts at a number of city centre establishments.
