The Role


Claverdon Primary School is located in the country village of Claverdon. We have approximately 200 enthusiastic learners on roll organised into 7 classes.

At Claverdon, we believe that it is a privilege to support children to achieve their full potential as they start their journey through education. Our aim is to prepare them for an ever-changing world and enable them to become life-long learners.

This journey begins with our Mission:

‘To inspire a passion for discovery, recognising diversity, effort and creative thinking within a nurturing environment.’

We take great pride in our school and are looking for a full time experienced Class Teacher to join our very positive, supportive and highly effective team. In addition to the main teaching role, this position includes Key Stage Phase Leader and Maths Subject Leader responsibilities covered by a TLR2a allowance.


Key Requirements

All teachers are not created equal. Some are frankly better than others. It is a privilege and special opportunity when we have a great one. Great teachers go above and beyond to ensure that each child is successful. Many of us have had that one teacher that inspired us more than any other. Great teachers are able to bring the best out of every pupil. They are often energetic, fun, and seemingly always at the top of their game. Their pupils look forward to coming to their class each day. When pupils move on to their next year group they are sad that they are leaving but armed with the skills necessary to be successful.

Great teachers are rare. Many teachers are capable, but there are a select few who are willing to spend the time necessary to hone their skills enough to become great. They are innovators, communicators, and educators. They are compassionate, endearing, charming, and funny. They are creative, smart, and ambitious. They are passionate, personable, and proactive. They are dedicated, continuous learners who are gifted in their craft. They are in a sense the total teaching package.

So what makes someone a great teacher? There is not a single answer. Instead, there are several exceptional things that great teachers do. Many teachers do a few of these things, but the great teachers consistently do them all.
