Edwalton Primary School: A Special Place to Work
Edwalton Primary School is a vibrant and welcoming environment, where enthusiastic children, dedicated and hardworking staff, supportive parents/carers, and a knowledgeable Governing Body come together to create a truly special learning community.
We are committed to excellence and high expectations for both our staff and children. At Edwalton, we aim for ‘Excellence at Edwalton’, encouraging all members of our school community to strive for continuous improvement.
As part of our team, you will play a key role in:
- Developing resilience in children by fostering innovation, collaboration, and problem-solving skills while encouraging perseverance and adaptability.
- Utilising our unique school environment—including our woodland and farm—to provide hands-on learning experiences that teach responsibility, environmental stewardship, and a deeper connection to the world around us.
Our Curriculum: A.L.I.V.E
Our curriculum is guided by our A.L.I.V.E principles:
- Aspirational
- Long-term Memory
- Inclusive
- Vocabulary Rich
- Experiences
We value the unique skills and qualities that each staff member brings to enhance our curriculum and meet the needs of our children. Our approach integrates outdoor learning, technology, and authentic learning experiences to ensure a well-rounded education.
At Edwalton, we foster an inclusive and nurturing environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. We celebrate diversity and recognise every achievement—no matter how small—because every smile is a reward.
A Commitment to Well-being and Development
Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do, with strong and robust systems in place to ensure the safety and well-being of our children. As a staff member, you would be part of a school that prioritises children's social, moral, spiritual, and cultural development alongside academic success.
We offer a broad range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and nurture programs, designed to develop well-rounded young people. Our goal is to equip children not only with academic excellence but also with the social and emotional skills needed to become thoughtful, responsible individuals.
If you are passionate about education, share our commitment to excellence, and want to be part of an inspiring team, we would love to hear from you.
