About the Role:

Are you an inspirational teacher who is passionate about delivering a rich curriculum which consists of a wide range of activities and experiences across and beyond the classroom? Do you want to teach in an outstanding school where the voice of the child is paramount to our learning? Do you want to work in a school where staff wellbeing is paramount? Do you want to teach in an environment where feedback is part of classroom practice and does not happen outside of the school day? Do you want to work with an exceptional staff and children who all have a thirst for learning and where outcomes for pupils are within the top 10% nationally?

At Gatley Primary School, which is part of a forward-thinking and collaborative Multi Academy Trust, we provide a learning environment that creates a warm, friendly atmosphere in which children can grow and develop both academically and personally. We take pride in our achievements and have high expectations for each child in every aspect of their work – captured by our underlying school mission statement – ‘Enjoying Learning and Achieving Together’ and ‘Inspire and Empower.’ We recognise that positive mental health and well-being, along with personal growth, are essential to the development of thriving and successful pupils and staff.

We are looking to recruit a teacher to join our team from January 2027. The successful candidate will be an exceptional teacher with skills to enhance school life in order to maximise opportunities for pupils. They will have high expectations of themselves and others, and this will reflect the Trust’s approach of collaboration and empowerment in order to achieve. The successful candidate will also demonstrate a real commitment to safeguarding and safe working practices which is fundamental to the Trust’s ethos and values.

We can offer the successful candidate:

  • Collaborative planning opportunities within year groups, phases and curriculum teams.
  • An opportunity to learn and develop together and from each other.
  • An aspirational working environment with a strong focus on professional development and empowerment.
  • Opportunities to implement initiatives based upon educational research.
  • A high functioning, friendly staff team who are committed to the school.
  • A comprehensive wellbeing offer to support staff and children.

We ensure that we have a range of policies and procedures in place, which promote safeguarding and safer working practice across the school. This is in line with statutory guidance Keeping Children Safe in Education and The Education Act 2002 and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
