Have an understanding of Health and Safety procedures and promote and ensure the Health and Safety of staff, pupils and visitors at all times
Contribute to the overall ethos, work and aims of the school
Be an effective role model for pupils by demonstrating and promoting the positive values, attitudes and behaviour expected from pupils
In return you will receive:
Excellent professional development as part of the school team and be given the opportunity to inspire and impact on others
A welcoming environment that is supported by committed, dedicated colleagues
A school which is reflective and strives for continual improvement
A supportive Governing Body who are committed to bringing around rapid improvement and ensuring the well-being of all our pupils
We are committed to protecting and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expect all staff to share this commitment. This post is working in regulated activity. If you are successful we will undertake additional recruitment checks which will include a check to see if you have had any criminal convictions, a check of police information and we will check the barred list(s). It is a criminal offence for a barred individual to apply for a job in regulated activity.
