Having recently been graded a good school by Ofsted, Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School is looking for a highly motivated, committed, enthusiastic and talented professional with the ability to make a further difference to our community. High standards of teaching and learning will be expected so that all children can achieve their potential. We are a friendly and supportive team.  The school is located at the heart of the picturesque village of Rottingdean, which is a ten minute journey from the centre of Brighton.

You will play an important role by: • Supporting the Catholic ethos (even if not Catholic) • Contributing to a forward thinking team who strive to provide good or outstanding teaching    and learning for all children at all times • Demonstrating excellent professional practice • Contributing to the School Development Plan and being committed to raising standards • Bringing a wide range of skills and interests that impact on the school community • Having high expectations and the ability to plan an inspiring, innovative curriculum that    ensures all children make good or better progress • Leading an area so that it impacts positively on all children • Working well with others

You will receive high quality CPD and opportunities to impact on the whole school whilst developing your own skills. Coaching, mentoring and shadowing opportunities are available for those wishing to develop their teaching. NQT’s are very welcome to apply.

If you are someone who enjoys the challenges of working in a school which aims to be the best it can, then please apply.

During our recent Ofsted (November 2014) children described the school as a good place to be because:

‘We are nice to each other; we follow our Golden Rules.’

‘It’s good to make a difference!’
