Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in education, or bachelor’s degree in specialised subject area with certificate in education
• Thorough knowledge of best practices and legal guidelines, and ability to adhere to school procedures and policies
• Excellent organisational and communication skills
• Creative, positive, and energetic demeanour
What the school offers its staff
Morden Mount is a two-form entry primary school on the borders of Greenwich with great links to Canary Wharf, the picturesque Blackheath village and the rustic Greenwich town centre. We are very proud of our diverse human and geographical school community and this underpins our wider school curriculum. Our teachers form an integral part of our school as they have continually found creative ways to infuse lessons with their life experiences and passion for teaching. Our pupils, despite the daily challenges, are steep in resilience and continually rise up to expectations, mitigating challenges with hard work and relentless dedication to learning.
Commitment to safeguarding
As a caring organisation with direct responsibility for children, our first concern must be the welfare of every child in our care. There may be occasions when we have to consult with other agencies even before we contact parents, particularly in relation to child protection concerns. Should this be necessary, then we will ensure that we speak to parents about any concerns that we have raised at an appropriate time. The procedures we follow form part of our statutory duty and have been issued by the Greenwich Safeguarding Children Partnership.
