Lying at the heart of our community, Thurlestone is framed by the stunning backdrop of the coastline and surrounding villages. As a small school there is a real sense of community where we aim to ensure that all our children have the best start in life and can flourish in all they do. The outdoor environment is very much part of the daily curriculum where a wealth of natural resources makes learning exciting and awe-inspiring for all children.
At All Saints’ Thurlestone we pride ourselves on providing every child with a rich and engaging curriculum grounded in our Christian values. Our vision is “Together we shine like stars reflected in the sea” we want to ensure that every child will achieve the very best they can, fulfil their dreams and ambitions and shine in all they do!
Through working together as a Hub with our sister schools, Charleton and West Alvington, and as part of our wider Trust, both our children and colleagues benefit from opportunities sometimes only afforded to large schools such as extra-curricular activities and training.
We are looking for a Class Teacher to join our passionate team in the South Hams Hub who can nurture and inspire our children, foster a love of learning, and make a profound difference to the lives of our children, ensuring that every child achieves their best no matter what their starting point. If you feel inspired by our mission, we would love to hear from you!
This is a great opportunity to be part of a wider team of teachers not just within the South Hams hub, but across the entire Trust, who develop practice and share expertise. We are proud that we are a single organisation where professional development and growth is supported and celebrated. We are an organisation who want you to feel professionally nourished and one who supports wellbeing through our offer to you.
Our School Trust is underpinned by our four core beliefs; we are stronger together, a sense of belonging; removing barriers and realising the possible. This means that by working collectively, we can achieve our absolute best to ensure that children, especially the most vulnerable, can flourish.
We can offer you:
● A culture that takes work life balance extremely seriously for all its colleagues
● The chance to work as part of a collective in a values-led School Trust, a single organisation
● Opportunities to develop your career with our growing School Trust through our excellent development practice

All our schools are each at the centre of their local communities and celebrate their individuality and distinctiveness. A core feature in how we work as a School Trust is our collective approach in delivering an exceptional education for all children. We do this through working very closely together in mutual support and challenge to empower excellence for our children, families, and the communities that we serve.
In short, our ethos is one of working together to Empower, Excel, Together.
We want to support you in deciding if we are a School Trust that you would like to join.
