Visits to our school are warmly welcomed. Please contact the school office by email recruit@thesolentschools.org   to arrange a tour. If there are any specific questions about the role, please indicate these in your email and someone will contact you. Please note all applications must be submitted on My New Term. We do not accept CVs.

You will be based predominantly at Solent Junior School.  However, as you will be appointed to The De Curci Trust, you may be required to work in any of The De Curci Trust’s academies or in any of the schools/academies that the Trust is supporting as reasonably directed by the CEO.  The ability to travel independently between DCT academies/schools is therefore essential.

The De Curci Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.  We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment.  All successful candidates will be subject to Disclosure and Barring checks, along with other relevant employment checks.

Completed application forms will be passed to the recruitment panel for shortlisting and will be reviewed against the person specification detailed in the advert. Applications will be assessed upon receipt and we reserve the right to interview and appoint prior to the closing date. An early application is therefore strongly advised.
