Please Note: The application deadline for this job has now passed.

What is the job role?

Finham Primary is an exciting, innovative, friendly and supportive school. Our most recent Ofsted (January 2019) described Finham Primary as a good school ‘the school is a positive and welcoming environment where adults and pupils have high expectations for what can be achieved. Leaders and governors are keen to develop the ‘whole child’’.

At Finham, children receive a holistic education, that nurtures their unique skills and talents.  Although children will develop at different rates, they all deserve a bespoke, values led, inclusive education and an excellent start in life. We strive for the highest standards. This is achieved by challenging, whilst supporting and nurturing each and every child.  We cultivate creativity and critical thinking to develop intrinsically motivated learners with high aspirations for their futures.

What we can offer:

  • Outstanding professional development as a strategic partner of The Lion Teaching School Alliance
  • Supportive staff and a strong team ethos
  • Supportive leadership within in the school and MAT
  • Progression opportunities as the school and MAT grow
  • Being part of something exciting for the City of Coventry

This post also gives the holder the opportunity to contribute to the work of Finham Park Multi Academy Trust. Primary and secondary schools in Finham Park MAT have set out to pioneer, innovate and deliver a ‘World Class’ education for all.
