Class Teacher

Salary: M1 to M6

Hours of work: Full time

Contract: Permanent

It is a real pleasure to introduce you to Holy Trinity Church of England Academy. We are a strong single academy trust situated in the Wiltshire town of Calne. Holy Trinity is a single form entry school - we have 210 children on roll currently.

Holy Trinity was built in 1866 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2016. It is a privilege to lead a school with such a rich history. Staff are very supportive of one another and work hard to maintain our children’s superb attitudes to learning. Holy Trinity is a family in which everyone is nurtured.

This is a permanent post. Although we have not specified a year group or a Key Stage, we are preferably looking for an EYFS teacher or someone who has an aspiration to be a great reception teacher. This shouldn’t prevent any KS2 candidates from applying as we are simply looking for the best teacher for our children.

As a single academy trust, Holy Trinity is forward-thinking and outward-looking. We are driven to do the very best for the children in our care. We want all of our children to leave Holy Trinity in Year 6 with a strong moral compass, God-given Christian values and a love of learning.

The class teacher role offers a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate to develop their skills and contribute to the full life of the school.

We take staff wellbeing seriously, within the busy life of a primary school. This includes a report writing day for school reports and additional time given to support subject leadership when required. There are many opportunities for continuing professional development.

I warmly welcome you to Holy Trinity and look forward to meeting you. If you are able to, please arrange a visit with our school office or arrange a telephone or Microsoft Teams call with the Headteacher.

We are a stand-alone academy, but have chosen to employ all our staff on the same terms and conditions as local authority schools.
