Required to start January 2025.
The First Federation Trust, a Multi Academy Trust of 29 primary schools across Devon and Dorset, including Mrs Ethelston's CE Primary Academy.
Mrs Ethelston’s Church of England Primary Academy is situated in the lovely village of Uplyme, which adjoins Lyme Regis. We have close links with other schools in both Dorset and Devon, and we are a feeder school to The Woodroffe School. We make the most of our rural location with visits around the local area, and are also proud to be part of the Jurassic Coast and the many unique learning opportunities this provides.
Mrs Ethelston’s has close and happy links with St Peter and St Pauls Church and is very much a community school and although the children come from a fairly wide area, they are encouraged to feel involved in village life. There are many links with the village of Uplyme creating a real partnership with the local community.
The school is seeking to recruit a full time classroom teacher to cover maternity leave initially for two terms in Year 2.
We are looking to appoint an exceptional candidate who:
1. Is committed to ensuring that all children achieve the highest possible outcome.
2. Can inspire and motivate children and enable them to be the best that they can be.
3. Has good curriculum knowledge
4. Has a dedication towards a child-centred approach, with creative ideas for learning opportunities.
We can offer the candidate:
5. An exciting and innovative Trust that will inspire and allow you to reach your full potential.
6. Collaborative support and ongoing professional development within our Multi Academy Trust
7. Opportunities for future career development within our own school and across the schools within our Trust.
8. Cycle to work scheme.
9. Staff wellbeing programme
10. Contributory pension through the Teachers Pensions Scheme
We offer you a supportive environment within a friendly team, with the added advantage of working closely with other schools within the Federation. All staff have access to a wide range of high quality courses and professional development. As a member of staff in the Trust, whether you are an early career or experienced teacher, you will have access to continual professional development and leadership opportunities.
You are encouraged to visit the school prior to application and can contact the school office on 01297 442210 to arrange this.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS disclosure is required for this post. Our Child Protection policy can be found on the school's website. All shortlisted applicants will be subject to an online search.
