Description Burraton Community Primary School has a high profile within the community and takes an active part in a variety of community events, such as Saltash’s Christmas festival which includes a light parade where pupils parade through the town with their lanterns, along with contributing to the popular annual Christmas Tree festival in the town's main church. Our pupils also perform Christmas entertainment to the very appreciative local senior citizens. The school boasts modern, well equipped and well-maintained facilities, all of which are conducive to promoting a positive environment to encourage learning. We anticipate pupil numbers to grow further once a new housing development to the west of the town is complete. The school has a team of experienced and committed teachers who are ably supported by many talented Learning Support Assistants who provide support for learning across the curriculum. In addition, we have a highly effective admin team to support the functioning of the school. The school has an Area Resource Base, which is a specialist unit for children with severe and complex learning needs. It is integral to the main school and operates under the leadership of the school. This unit has been expanded in the last five years and is a purpose-built provision providing for some of the most vulnerable children within the catchment of South East Cornwall. The Governors established a school nursery three years ago - this allows us to prepare more of the children from our local community for their transition to our reception classes and which provides a solid and effective foundation to their journey at Burraton School. Expectations and standards are high at Burraton: as a result, children - along with their very supportive parents - respond positively to a happy, safe and nurturing environment. A recruitment pack is available on our school website. The successful applicant will have the support of a committed governing board alongside our dedicated and friendly team of teachers and support staff. We are committed to safeguarding children and the successful applicant will be required to undertake an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and will be assessed against the Childcare Disqualification Regulations.
