If you answered YES to these questions and would like to teach full time at St Mary’s, Banbury we want to hear from you.

We are driven by our Values to ‘Truth, Endurance, Compassion and Koinonia’. You will be someone who thrives on challenging yourself to challenge your children and revels in the progress each individual learner makes.

We have a growing roll with single form entry and a thriving nursery. Our teachers plan in phase teams and create exciting, cross curricular learning. Our diverse community welcomes children from around the world and we offer them the chance to learn indoors and out. We are an ‘O.P.A.L.’ school, where our playtimes are just as important as our classroom times! Our curriculum is enhanced with art days, specialist music provision, community sports events and character education from the ‘Commando Joe’s’, respect curriculum. In addition, we enable visits to exciting and stimulating locations and events. We have seen Mary Poppins in London, been to The Black Country Museum, visited the Rainforest and London Zoo, been on residential trips and performed with a professional dance company! We create opportunities for pupils to present and perform both in school and our wider community and all this comes together to ensure that our pupils are engaged with the experiences that challenge and inspire them to make progress from their personal starting points.

We pride ourselves on our inclusive practice. You will have excellent opportunities to develop your skills working with EAL and SEN pupils, supported by an outstanding team of teachers and teaching assistants who will help you to identify and adapt your practice to meet the needs of a wide and varying school community. We believe every child is on their own personal learning journey and adapt curriculum and access accordingly with no child excluded from reaching their personal ambitions.
