Teacher plus TLR2

Our school family and local community are proud of our school, which is underpinned by our Christian values. We are committed to ensuring that school offers an excellent education for our children. Our children, staff and governors are a wonderful team. The staff work hard, and a new member to our school family needs to also share our determination to do our very best and to support all children to achieve in an environment where they feel safe and supported. In return, we would offer all the support and training necessary to help the successful candidate to fulfil their potential and realise their ambitions. We offer a culture of camaraderie between all staff with relationships built upon trust and understanding. On top of this, joy and laughter are present in everyday school life.

Thank you for your interest in the post of full-time teacher with TLR at Rectory CoE Primary School. We are looking for a highly motivated, ambitious classroom practitioner who strives for excellence. We would like to appoint someone who is passionate about teaching and is prepared to go the extra mile to continually improve provision and experiences for our children, nurturing and supporting them to become the best possible versions of themselves.

The successful candidate must be committed to embedding and promoting the Christian ethos of the school, forming positive relationships with children, staff, parents, governors, and the local community whilst maintaining high standards and expectations for all.

In addition to the above, the post would be best suited for an individual who is aspiring to leadership, providing the opportunity to lead a whole school initiatives and demonstrate impact. The TLR will be discussed in collaboration with the successful candidate, considering their strengths and the needs of the school.

Rectory is one-form primary school in Downall Green, South Wigan. It is an exciting time to join us on our journey, shaping our curriculum and personal development offer for our pupils. An important part of Rectory is our 32 place ASD provision, which is due to expand to 40 places from September 2025.

Rectory is a happy place to work. The children are keen to learn, and they deserve the best. This permanent, full-time vacancy offers a fantastic opportunity for a creative, positive, inspiring, and enthusiastic individual to join our team as we continue to move our school forward. The post is ideally suited to a candidate with key stage 2 experience. Responsibilities attached to the TLR will be decided depending on the strengths of the successful candidate. We ask that candidates highlight any skills and experience.

Visits to the school and/or an informal chat with myself or a member of SLT are warmly welcome in the afternoons up to the deadline. Please contact Mrs Proudfoot, school business manager, to make an appointment.

All school staff, governors and volunteers are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The post is subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS check

Many thanks,
Mr Richard Brook
Headteacher
