About this role
Weyford Nursery and Primary Academy is part of the University of Chichester Multi-Academy Trust, that has built a strong reputation, providing exceptional support for its children and staff. Across the Trust there is a shared commitment for collaboration which has empowered leaders to share their expertise and work together for the benefit of all. We are all committed to the same vision and values and a shared belief that education has the power to transform society.
The successful candidate will be an outstanding teacher, passionate about classroom practice and committed to high expectations for children's achievement and behaviour. They must have the ability to adapt learning experiences to meet the diverse needs of students.
The ideal candidate will possess skills to create a stimulating and purposeful learning environment that encourages all learners to reach their full potential. With a positive attitude, resilience, excellent interpersonal skills, and a strong work ethic, you will be dedicated to collaborating with colleagues and contributing to various aspects of school life. Additionally, you will engage with parents, guardians, governors, and the local community to foster a supportive educational environment.
Weyford Nursery and Primary Academy is a values driven school with the values of respect, kindness, teamwork, inclusivity, aspiration and achievement underpinning everything we do. We believe that children learn best when they are happy, well cared for and secure in themselves. We work hard to build supportive relationships between all the adults and children to make sure that everybody enjoys their time in the school. We expect all members of our school community to take age appropriate responsibility for their own actions and learning. We have high expectations of everybody and provide the children with a wide range of challenging and engaging opportunities so that they can achieve at a high level.
We have introduced a two-week October half term across all our schools. This initiative is already making a positive impact giving staff and pupils a valuable break during the long autumn term, reducing absence through illness, and supporting overall well-being. It also brings greater consistency across our Trust, creating a more connected and efficient way of working. It’s just one example of how we prioritise our people and create a working environment where everyone can thrive.
