About this Role

We are welcoming applications from colleagues with a dedication and drive for excellent outcomes for all children both academically and pastorally.  We are looking for a skilled communicator who is able to work at pace with teaching and learning as their focus.  This post will not have a regular teaching commitment initially but this may be required at a later date.   This successful applicant will be appointed to either Oakwood Primary Acacdemy or Beechwood Primary Academy.

We have schools that have started their journeys towards excellence.  We are looking for colleagues who will delight in moving a school forward with strong organisational and leadership skills.  Our local community and families deserve to be served by excellent staff who enjoy working in a dedicated team.  We believe that our small Trust has the best combination of a family feel whilst still offering progression opportunities across a number of schools.

The workload and wellbeing programme is in its infancy.  For the successful candidate, we currently offer free wraparound care for employee children and grandchildren in our schools and are due to implement wellbeing weeks during 2026.  Our refurbishment programme is underway which will lead to an inspiring environment for all staff and children.  We are looking forward to meeting dedicated colleagues who will benefit from our School and Trust offer.

We strongly encourage visits so you are able to see our schools in action.  To book a tour, please send an email to: HR@Discoverymat.co.uk

We may close this advert earlier than advertised if we find suitable candidates before this date.  We all look forward to welcoming you.

Discovery Multi Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check, online searches and other pre-employment checks.
