About Churchfield Primary School

Thank you for visiting the careers page of Churchfield Primary School. Our school is an above-average sized primary school based in the heart of the ex-mining community of Cudworth. The village is part of the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, located four miles to the north-east of the town and approximately three miles from the West Yorkshire border. Cudworth is home to three primary schools, with Churchfield being the largest and having the most varied catchment.
Churchfield Primary School has provided, on the same site, a continuous source of education to thousands of Cudworth children for over 120 years. Whilst the exterior of our building does not look very much different from what it did in 1901, the inside is a modern and vibrant teaching environment with a very stable, committed, and enthusiastic staff base and with excellent school–family relationships.
We would anticipate that any staff member in our school would value the place our school has in the local community, the common history we share in helping shape the lives of the children of our village, share our inclusive, caring ethos and commitment to continue to provide an excellent caring, learning environment.
We are on a journey as part of Waterton Academy Trust. The school is currently rated Good by OFSTED and we are determined to build on this good practice and embed excellence throughout.
A strength of our school is our inclusivity. We have a high number of pupils with complex needs with an EHCP average of 5% over three years. The majority of these pupils struggle to access mainstream education in other settings. This was recognised by OFSTED in 2018 ‘school goes above & beyond for all pupils’.
The wellbeing of our staff is important to us. In September 2020, 90% of staff members reported that they felt supported, and 100% of staff members felt happy to work at school.
School has been recognised with a range of awards, and is a Yorkshire Sport Centre of Excellence. We place great emphasis on sport, physical and mental health with an example being our daily mile challenge.
Collaboration has always been at the heart of our practice and we currently have a number of staff who are supporting other schools through various SLE projects, Trust support work and the Barnsley Alliance.
We hope that you will consider joining out dedicated and hard-working staffing team, who work tirelessly to ensure that all of our children grow, achieve and shine.
