Job Introduction
ABOUT OUR SCHOOL
Our Schools are part of The Learning Federation Partnership of Schools. With 3 schools rated
Outstanding by Ofsted, and located in Southampton, we benefit from a
spacious site that offers excellent facilities and enriching experiences for our children. These include a
large sports field, well-equipped playgrounds, and a dedicated ECO area for weekly outdoor learning,
alongside regular music and sports provision and a wide range of external trips and experiences.
Our children enjoy a carefully designed, engaging, and knowledge-rich curriculum. Learning is
brought to life through key concepts that help them make meaningful connections and better
understand the world around them. As a result, our pupils are highly engaged, well behaved, and
approach their learning with a positive growth mindset.
Our team is collaborative, proactive, and reflective, with a shared commitment to the learning,
development, and wellbeing of every child.
