https://www.clayesmore.com/work-for-us/
Applications will be considered as soon as they are received and so the deadline may close earlier if we find the right candidate, therefore early applications are advised.
Clayesmore School is totally committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, as all new staff will be subject to enhanced DBS clearance, identity checks, qualification checks and employment checks to include an exploration of any gaps within employment, two satisfactory references and registration with the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
