- an ability to motivate parents in order to improve self-esteem, resilience and aspiration within the family
- an ability to offer support in attending multi-agency meetings, adult education, parenting support and signposting to different agencies
In return, we can offer:
- A chance to join a school where children are at the heart of all we do
- A dedicated and friendly staff team with supportive Governors
- Polite and happy children who enjoy coming to school
- A good school at our most recent OFSTED
