Waulud Primary School

Who we are

Letter from the Headteacher 

Thank you for your interest in the role of Assistant at Waulud Primary School.

Waulud Primary School is a very friendly, welcoming and hardworking school, where the enthusiastic and positive attitude of all staff make it a great place to work.

It is a two-form entry school with a culture of High Aspirations for all pupils and staff. Our Ofsted inspection in March 2023 graded the school as “good”.

The Inspectors noted that

‘The school’s strong values provide children with a very nurturing, caring environment.’

‘Teachers help pupils see the relevance of their learning by adopting a themed or topic approach to pull subjects together. Lessons are brought to life by visits and visitors to the school’

‘You and your staff have ensured that the school is inclusive.’

‘All current leaders and governors undertake their duties with care. Staff are suitably trained, referring to the latest government guidance.’

Following a recent visit, the IQM (Inclusion Quality Mark) assessor noted:

 ‘You should feel proud of the safe haven you have created at your school and the wonderful dedication and commitment from all staff towards the common goals you are working towards.’

‘The obvious desire of the whole team to offer the children and families a welcoming, supportive, inclusive environment and aspirational opportunities is impressive.’

The successful candidate will join our staff team at an exciting time in the school’s development, as we continue with our ambition and determination to improve outcomes for our pupils.

The school has over 400 pupils and a good reputation for supporting them to develop positive learning behaviours. With strong ties to the local community our dedicated staff team make a difference to every child and have high aspirations for all. Challenging them to aim high and take a real pride in who they are and what they desire to achieve.
