We are keen to appoint a ‘quality first,’ teacher to join our ambitious and successful staff team. This is a full-time post, although we would consider part-time / flexible hours for the right candidate.
Hillingdon Primary School was inspected by Ofsted in March 2024 and we were judged to be an ‘outstanding’ school where ‘Pupils flourish … They benefit from highly positive experiences and achieve exceptionally well’. We have wonderful pupils in our school and Ofsted commented that their behaviour is ‘exemplary’.
We are determined to maintain our outstanding status for our pupils, who deserve an excellent education, however we know that teaching is a demanding job, therefore we are keen to provide an environment in which teachers enjoy working and workload is considered. Year group leaders work within a supportive team of other year group leaders across the primary phase, and are overseen by a Senior Leader. All subject planning is in place on a Google drive for teachers to adapt to the needs of their pupils. Specialist subject teachers cover PPA; there is a pool of class learning support assistants and nursery nurses; and administrative support to manage data collection and input.
We are a large primary school with an established leadership structure and we take pride in supporting our staff to develop their subject expertise, leadership and management skills, be it through our internal succession planning or strong external partnerships. Ofsted commented that ‘Staff are exceptionally positive about working at Hillingdon Primary School. They are proud to work in a school that cares for them as individuals. They appreciate the many professional development opportunities on offer’.
The school is proud to be part of the Elliot Foundation, a multi-academy trust specialising in primary education. We work with other academies and like-minded professionals for the benefit of our students. Elliot Foundation teachers have access to a wide range of comprehensive learning and development opportunities. We are also a local partner for Teach West London teaching school hub, leading on Primary ITT and ECT training and development in the London Borough of Hillingdon, and we are thrilled at the additional opportunities this presents for our staff to grow and progress. We have a successful track record of enabling career progression: many of our middle leaders eventually move on to senior leadership positions due to the opportunities we provide to support a teacher’s development and career.
Keen to find out more before applying and / or learn more about the advantages of working in an academy?
Hillingdon Primary School is situated in a central location in Hillingdon Borough with good road connections to the A40, M4 and M25, together with good transport links.
