Accountabilities
Undertake such reasonable activities as the Headteacher and Governors may, from time to time, require.

As a term of your employment you may reasonably be expected to perform duties of a similar or related nature to those outlined in the job description.
This job description will be reviewed and updated periodically in order to ensure that it relates to the job performed. The work of all MATs and schools change and develop continuously which in turn, requires employees to adapt and adjust. The functions/responsibilities above should not therefore be regarded as immutable, but may change commensurate with the grading of the post.
In these circumstances it will be the aim to reach agreement on reasonable changes, but if
agreement is not possible management reserves the right to make changes to the job description following consultation. Any major changes will involve discussion and consultation, which if wished, may involve a Trade Union/Professional Association representative.

Work part time 0.7 across both Austrey Primary School and Newton Regis Primary School which are only a mile apart. This position will require you to work one week 3 days and the following week 4 days covering age ranges of Year 1 to Year 6.

This position is appropriate for main Scale M3 – M6 but NOT suitable for ECTs.

Fixed term until 31/08/2026
