On behalf of the governors and staff of St Edward's Primary School, I would like to thank you for taking an interest in this role at our school
St. Edward’s is a very special place with a distinctive Christian ethos, committed to inclusion and the pursuit of excellence in all that we do. We are very proud of our school with its excellent team of dedicated teachers, support staff and its enthusiastic and caring children. All come together to create a lively and engaging atmosphere in which to work, teach and learn. Add to this supportive parents and engaged governors and the school has a family feel where all are working together to make our school truly a special place.
Our Christian ethos permeates all that we do and our Christian values are at the centre of our school: Friendship, Thankfulness, Truthfulness, Trust, Forgiveness, Respect and Reverence and Responsibility. At our school we have staff of all faiths and none. What we ask is that you are proactive in supporting the Christian ethos we have at St Edward's.
Our children are keen to learn and to be involved in the running of their school. A walk through the school affords you an insight into their amazing artwork and sporting achievements. Their views are aired and shared via our various pupil voice groups.

Therefore Havering Schools comply with the Department for Education ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ guidance.
It is an offence to apply for a post which involves engaging in regulated activity relevant to children if you are barred from doing so. Please be advised that, again in line with ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’, shortlisted candidates (who wish to accept an invite to interview) will be required to submit, prior to their interview, a self-declaration of their criminal record or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children. Upon submission of this information, online checks may be carried out.
This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974; the successful applicant will be expected to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure check. Having a criminal record will not necessarily debar you from obtaining a position with the School.
