You will join us at an exciting time as we have a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating from our last inspection in March 2018, we are part of the Castle Phoenix Trust and we are looking forward to exciting developments within the curriculum.  The Trust has already seen us benefit from CPD links and positive transition for our year 6 children, many of whom go on to Caludon Castle, one of the secondary schools in the Trust. The Trust prides itself on being the kind of place people want to work where everyone recognises the buzz of excitement and togetherness, whatever stage they are at in their career. 

Within our wonderful building we have a large sports hall, well-equipped classrooms with break out zones, a music/drama studio, a wonderful woodland spinney with forest school working and a whole school library which was created with over £8000 worth of new books.  All year groups have their own iPad resources and access to the ‘Acorn’ interactive room with write-on tables.

  • Has a strong commitment to working in partnership with parents, Governors and the community

We can offer:-

  • Hard working colleagues and well-trained support staff who are passionate about what they do
  • Pupils who are excited about learning new things
  • A supportive Trust and local governing body who are committed to helping the school move forwards
  • An updated and exciting ‘Cornerstones’ curriculum with supportive and engaging resources, online hub and opportunities for trips, visits and visitors.
