About us

Our whole school community values the contribution every child brings, which makes our school a happy and fun place to learn and work. Our mission statement is: ‘Together We Thrive’ and this sentiment underpins all we do. As a Church of England Primary School, we have close links with St Mary’s Church, collaborating regularly throughout the year. This collaboration, as well as celebrating our school’s cultural diversity, helped us to achieve our Outstanding SIAMS (Statutory Inspection of Anglian and Methodist Schools) inspection result in June 2015.

At Walsgrave CE Academy we believe in encouraging children to know how they learn best. Pupils need to understand why learning is important and to be as involved as much as possible in their own learning. We get to know each pupil extremely well, recognise their potential, tailor individual learning needs and support each pupil’s learning with high quality teaching, learning and resources. We offer a bespoke and exciting, broad and balanced curriculum that is enriched by visitors, educational visits and memorable experiences. We are passionate about all children having core skills in Reading, Writing and Maths, as well as opportunities for them to become artists, musicians, historians etc. Children feel safe and happy in school and they tell us that they look forward to coming to school every day (and so do we!).

We believe that every child can do amazing things, and it’s our job to help make this potential a reality. With an outstanding education, every child has the freedom to choose their own future.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and appointments will be subject to rigorous safeguarding checks including enhanced DBS and references. The postholder must share our commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Candidates who have been successfully shortlisted will be asked to complete a self-declaration to confirm any (non-protected) criminal disclosures or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children. 

The post is exempt from the rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975, 2013 and 2020. Which means that when applying for certain jobs and activities certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’, so they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account. Further information about filtering offences can be found in the DBS filtering guide. 

We aim to recruit the very best staff and welcome those from all backgrounds, communities and faiths (including non-faith individuals). Inspire Education Trust is clear about its responsibilities in embracing diversity and ensuring we recruit people of a high calibre based on their skills, abilities, and experience. As such, we welcome applications from a diverse range of candidates. 

The role of Class Teacher will be classed as regulated activity. Any offer of employment will be conditional until satisfactory completion of all mandatory pre-employment checks. It is an offence to apply for this role if barred from engaging in regulating activity relevant to children.
