Hotwells Primary School is a vibrant and creative, community-focused one form entry primary school - small in size but bursting at the seams with creativity, warmth and a curiosity to learn! We pride ourselves on our ambitious curriculum, our strengths in the Arts and our wonderful local and global community of children and families.

We are extremely proud to be part of the Cathedral Schools Trust. We belong to a family of six state funded primary schools and three secondary schools. We are close neighbours with Cathedral Primary School and Bristol Cathedral Choir School and less than five miles from each of the schools in the Trust.

Following our ‘Good’ Ofsted rating in September 2022, which recognised the huge developments we have made in our curriculum and the rapid improvement journey the school has been on, as well as the appointment of our new substantive headteacher in January 2023, our school is going from strength-to-strength. We have a dedicated and enthusiastic staff team who are committed to further professional development.

Candidates must share the vision for Hotwells Primary School as a thriving and vibrant school, which has high expectations for all. As part of the Cathedral Schools Trust family of schools we hope that all staff will make a positive impact on the lives and experiences of the children, parents and carers of the community.

The Head Teacher wishes to appoint:

• An individual who shares the vision for Hotwells Primary School: developing children who are ambitious, creative, local and global citizens.
• An outstanding teacher with an excellent understanding of Primary education.
• An individual with experience of teaching in Primary, either in your current role or in your teaching practice.
• An outstanding and inspirational teacher who is committed to providing high quality learning and experiences for all children.
• A creative teacher who is experienced in curriculum innovation and development.
• A teacher who appreciates the importance of a broad and balanced curriculum.
• An ambitious teacher who is committed to professional development.
• An individual who has the enthusiasm to lead a curriculum area across the school.
• Somebody with a good sense of humour and who thrives when working as part of a team.

Staff at Hotwells Primary School work in close partnership with other primary and secondary schools within Cathedral Schools Trust. The Trust is committed to providing staff with opportunities for personal and professional development, providing candidates with the opportunity to work alongside a group of committed professionals.
