Description

Summary

Do you have experience in overseeing pupil achievement and progress? We are currently looking to appoint a dedicated and experienced teacher to drive up standards of pupil attainment and achievement in the EYFS at Harris Primary Academy Croydon.


About Us

Our aim for pupils at Harris Primary Academy Croydon (HPAC) is for them to develop into happy, confident and independent individuals who are motivated by a real love of learning.


Our curriculum is rich, varied and engaging and we deliver a range of extra-curricular activities so that our pupils can try new things and learn to embrace challenge.

We hope that every child finds something they truly enjoy and excel at during their time with us, whether that is science, creative writing, art, public speaking, sport or anything else.

Our goal is to develop the whole child and personal, social and emotional development are key in enabling our pupils to flourish.

Every day our pupils, teachers and staff all contribute to making our academy a warm and welcoming place to learn.

I am very proud of our pupils' positivity towards their learning and the kindness they display towards their teachers and each other.

We have high hopes for every pupil, regardless of their background or starting point. Our teachers prepare lessons and activities that engage their pupils' intellectual curiosity and develop their burgeoning talents and interests.

Every lesson is devised to be engaging and fun so that children approach their learning positively and make excellent progress.

Our teachers and support staff work closely with any child who is finding aspects of learning difficult and identify those who need an extra challenge.


We are very much a community school and, as well as developing local links and partnerships, we encourage our pupils to be polite, caring and outstanding members of their local community.

This, we hope, will help enable our pupils to become compassionate, ambitious, global citizens of the future.

We also know that a close partnership with parents and carers is vital and we do all we can to keep them informed and involved in all aspects of school life.


Main Areas of Responsibility

The purpose of your role will be:

  • To be an exemplary classroom practitioner
  • To work with staff and to support them to achieve targets
  • To analyse and interpret data to identify appropriate improvement strategies and so ensure challenging targets are set and achieved
  • To proactively ensure appropriate intervention strategies are put in place when needed
  • To provide targeted professional development and interventions
  • To coach and mentor the team working in the phase and contribute to performance management

Qualifications & Experience

  • Qualified Teacher Status (or equivalent)
  • A proven track record of recent and successful class teaching in mixed ability classes of primary age
