The Governors and Head Teacher at The Deans Primary School are looking to appoint an exceptional Site Officer to come and join our fantastic school and help look after our amazing facilities.

We are very much a primary school, and we believe in primary education. We work as a team to get the best from each other and most importantly from the children.  As a team, we hold each other to the highest standards, but we also have great fun learning with the children.

We are rightly proud of the continued wonderful academic achievements of our pupils and the fact that we have consistently been rated as Outstanding in all areas by Ofsted, but this is not what defines the children at our school. We measure our success by the smiles and laughter that we see and hear around school, as well as by the excellent academic results the children achieve. 

We are a growing school, who are gradually expanding into our new building year on year. We are currently undertaking a very exciting project to develop our school grounds, and our aim is to have the best primary school facilities and grounds possible to help us achieve our aim of being the happiest school in the country. We need a Site Officer who is excited and enthusiastic about our facilities and development, who will help us maintain and improve these in the best possible way. 

If you want to get a real feel for our school then you should have a good look around our website. The job description and person specification for the position should give you a good idea of what we are looking for. 
If you like what you see and feel that you can contribute to making a significant difference to children’s lives then we strongly suggest that you arrange a visit to come and have a look around, or contact the Head Teacher to have a chat before making an application.
