We are looking for an experienced Class teacher to join our dedicated team of staff at Lambourn Cof E Primary, a small rural school with big ideas, set within extensive and beautiful grounds.

At Lambourn, our vision is simple – we work closely together, sharing our common goal of inspiring our children and staff to achieve, to enjoy life and learning. In our January 2023 Ofsted inspection, we were rated good in 4 areas.

We would love to hear from you if you feel you could share in this aspiration. We are looking for:

• An enthusiastic and caring teacher
• Experience in the trauma informed supportive approach is highly desirable
• A teacher who is reflective, able to use AFL to help pupils improve and use adaptive teaching to meet class SEND needs
• A person who has high personal expectations as well as high aspirations for all pupils.
• A strong, professional collaborator who works well as part of a team with a willingness to lead on a subject to the required high standard

Lambourn is a large village set in rolling hills with easy accessibility to Swindon (12 miles), Marlborough (13 miles), Wantage (9 miles) and Newbury (13 miles). We are very proud of our facilities - we have well maintained grounds, large and bright classrooms, a minibus, a swimming pool and good ICT provision.

In return we can offer you:

• Well behaved children with staff who care deeply for the children and each other
• A wide range of excellent curriculum resources and facilities for all subjects
• A supportive academic team including the wider Excalibur Academy Trust with opportunities for further career development
• A proactive and supportive Sendco, pastoral and attendance staff team
• Full range of Employee Health and Wellbeing services
• Free on-site parking
• Use of heated outdoor pool in Summer term
• Friday afternoon early finish

We encourage and welcome informal discussions about the position alongside a visit to the school. Please contact the school office to arrange to come and visit (admin@lambourn.excalibur.org.uk).

As an Academy we work within the support of Excalibur Academies Trust, which offers our employees many wide ranging opportunities for future professional development. For further Trust information, please see Excalibur’s website:

We will look forward to hearing from you.
