Summary

What skills and experience we're looking for

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic School Games Organiser to grow the engagement of local schools in the School Games and inspire young people to be physically active for life through positive experiences of daily activity and competition.

In addition to leading the School Games locally, you will be running an 18-month pilot in Tower Hamlets to “super-charge” physical activity and test new approaches.

We are seeking an individual with:

• Excellent organisational and communication skills when interacting with other education settings externally and internally at Cubitt Town Primary
• Recognition of the importance of delivering a top-quality PE experience for local primary school pupils and the importance of this on the reputation of our school.
• The ability to operate and communicate at all levels of school staffing and management
• The recognition of the importance of high-profile events to the marketing of our school
• Excellent pupil behavioural management skills
• Ability to communicate effectively, both orally and in written form
• Excellent inter-personal skills, time management and attendance
• Commitment to our school and its pupils
• Excellent attention to detail
• The ability to work with minimum supervision and the ability to work within a team

The post holder will work with national guidance from Sport England and the Youth Sport Trust, within a strong local partnership of School Games Organisers, the London Marathon, and wider stakeholders.

What the school offers its staff

We believe that physical activity is fundamental to a happy, healthy, and successful life. Through daily movement, play, and sport, we nurture resilience, teamwork, and a love of being active that extends beyond the school gates. By combining academic excellence with a strong emphasis on physical wellbeing, we ensure that every child leaves Cubitt Town Primary not only equipped with the knowledge and skills to succeed, but also with the strength, energy, and enthusiasm to live life to the fullest.

Commitment to safeguarding

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Please note that in all cases, a written reference will be taken up and any offer of employment will be subject to receipt of an enhanced DBS clearance. We are dedicated to equality and valuing diversity.
