About Bawnmore Community Infant School

Bawnmore Community Infant School is a highly inclusive, community-focused school with a long-standing reputation for delivering an exceptional standard of education. Rooted in a genuinely child‑centred approach, we are proud of our positive outcomes, our nurturing ethos, and the trust placed in us by families and the wider community.

Are you…

  • An outstanding, passionate classroom practitioner?
  • Someone at the beginning of your senior leadership journey, ready for the next step?
  • A subject leader, project lead, or teacher who has influenced practice beyond your own classroom?
  • A reflective practitioner who can inspire, support and motivate colleagues?
  • Committed to raising standards and making a meaningful difference to children’s lives?

What We Offer

We are fortunate to have a warm, welcoming and collaborative staff team with high levels of retention. We value every member of staff and are committed to supporting each individual’s professional development and ambitions. As part of a federation of three schools, and with strong partnerships across a wider local network, we offer rich opportunities for collaborative working, professional growth and leadership experience across our settings.

About the Role

This is a class‑based leadership role with dedicated weekly non‑contact time proportionate to whether the role is full‑time or part‑time.

We welcome applications from candidates seeking:

  • Full‑time
  • Part‑time
  • Job‑share

Flexible working will be positively considered for the right candidate.

The successful applicant will initially take responsibility for Curriculum and Assessment, working closely with the Head of School and Executive Headteacher. The post will begin with a Key Stage One class; however, experience across the infant age range is desirable.

We are looking for someone who is:

  • Ambitious for themselves and the school
  • Keen to develop as a leader at a strategic level
  • Ready to contribute ideas, energy and commitment to our ongoing school improvement journey

Additional Desirable Experience

Experience or interest in SEND leadership is welcome but not a requirement. Previous SENDCo experience or a desire to train as a SENDCo would be viewed positively, but only as an added strength. We have an excellent, dedicated SENDCo who sits on SLT and would be delighted to mentor and support a colleague wishing to develop and share this area.

Key Requirements

  • Qualified Teacher Status (primary)
  • Degree‑level qualification
  • Experience of leading others or leading an aspect of school improvement
  • Evidence of recent professional development related to teaching, learning or leadership
