Batley Multi Academy Trust’s sole purpose is to provide a great education for Primary and Secondary learners throughout a local family of schools. The Trust is passionately committed to the communities of Batley, Birstall, Dewsbury and our surrounding areas, serving our local learners and their families in order to secure excellent educational outcomes, partnered with high aspirations. Batley Multi Academy Trust currently comprises Batley Girls’ High School; Batley Grammar School; Field Lane Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Healey Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Hyrstmount Junior School; Manorfield Infant and Nursery School; Purlwell Infant and Nursery School and Upper Batley High School. We provide high quality education for all our young people regardless of their background or starting point. Collaboration across our Trust family of schools enables us to share expertise, knowledge and best practice to ensure academic and pastoral excellence, with all schools embracing the same overall ethos and values, whilst maintaining their own unique characters. 

At Hyrstmount Junior School, we are proud to offer a nurturing, warm, and happy environment where learners thrive academically, socially and personally. 

Our extensive school grounds are a unique feature of the school, including a forest area, a pond, two large playgrounds, an allotment, and an all-weather pitch. These outdoor spaces allow our learners to engage in hands-on learning and physical activity, fostering creativity, exploration, and environmental awareness. 

At the heart of our school are our Hyrstmount Heroic Values: respect, cooperation, determination, responsibility, and empathy. These values underpin everything we do and create the foundations for our learners’ personal development. We are deeply committed to creating a cohesive school community where every child feels valued, supported, and able to reach their full potential.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a supportive forward-thinking school and Trust, who in return for your commitment and hard work, will support you to achieve your own career goals and aspirations.   

We are looking to appoint a Business Support Assistant to work in our busy school office.  The successful candidate will join a friendly and supportive staff team and will work closely with the Senior Business Support Officer in providing effective administrative support for the school. As the first line of contact for parents and visitors, you will need to have the necessary interpersonal skills, warmth and humour to make all stakeholders feel welcomed and valued whenever they visit or contact school.
