Catton Grove Primary School is a large three form entry school with low staff turnover, so this is a rare opportunity to join our talented, ambitious, committed and caring team! We see what we do as a vocation not a job and, as such, we work hard and go the extra mile for our pupils when we need to.

We serve a deprived community with all of the challenges that come with it. We have very high expectations on behalf of our pupils and make no apologies for that. Catton Grove has a long-standing and robust reputation for the support we offer our pupils, staff and families.

The successful applicant for this post will be supporting children with identified SEND to access learning in a classroom environment. See Job Description/Person Specification documents for further details/requirements.

We are seeking a candidate with a positive ‘can do’ attitude and the ability to communicate and work well with others, along with a willingness to be involved in the wider life of our school. You will be a good role model to all pupils and be patient, calm, confident, consistent, encouraging and motivating!

We are fortunate to have the best of both worlds as we are the size of a high school but with the feel of a close-knit school family. We are a friendly, committed team who work hard to meet the needs of all children in our school, supporting them to become lifelong learners who believe in themselves and aim high.

Catton Grove is a strong school community, with enthusiastic and inspirational pupils who are keen to learn. You would be joining a supportive, dedicated team of staff who work hard to enable our pupils and staff to achieve the best they can.
