Its Early Years curriculum follows the EYFS framework, with learning built around play, exploration, communication, physical development and developing independence. The latest Ofsted monitoring visit in July 2026 recognised clear improvements. Inspectors found that Early Years now provides a secure foundation in reading, writing and maths, with a stronger focus on communication and language. Children were observed talking confidently about their learning through work and play. The school is continuing its improvement journey, making this an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to play a positive part in a developing and inclusive setting. What we are looking for • A warm, patient and positive personality • A genuine interest in Early Years children • Nursery or EYFS experience is highly valued • Someone confident supporting children with additional needs • Good communication and teamwork • A calm and encouraging approach Apply today to be considered for this role.
