We are a two-form entry primary school dedicated to serving the local community in north Westminster. Our welcoming neighbourhood school provides excellent education with high expectations for all our pupils.
We are passionate about life-changing teaching and instilling an eagerness to learn within our pupils. Our vision is for every child at Ark Atwood to fulfil their potential and be set up for success when they move on to secondary school.
Our dedicated staff team are committed to the success of all our children and the learning culture is strong. Our commitment to knowing every child is shared by everyone on the team and we strongly believe that children whose parents are involved in their learning do well. We therefore strongly encourage parents to be active members of our school community.
Diversity and inclusion:
We aim to build a diverse and inclusive organisation where everyone – staff and students – can do their best work and achieve their full potential. We want to reflect and represent diverse perspectives across our organisation because we know that doing so will make us stronger and more effective.

Safeguarding statement:
Ark is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people in its academies. In order to meet this responsibility, its academies follow a rigorous selection process to discourage and screen out unsuitable applicants.
Ark requires all employees to undertake an enhanced DBS check. You are required, before appointment, to disclose any unspent conviction, cautions, reprimands or warnings under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Non-disclosure may lead to termination of employment. However, disclosure of a criminal background will not necessarily debar you from employment - this will depend upon the nature of the offence(s) and when they occurred.

Please note we will be reviewing applications on an on-going basis and this role may close earlier than advertised depending on the level of response. We strongly encourage to submit your application at your earliest convenience.
