We are a vibrant, successful and friendly primary school for children between 4 - 11 years with 260 pupils on roll. Located in the village of Great Brickhill, we are 5 miles from Milton Keynes, and 4 miles from Leighton Buzzard so we have good accessibility. Our children are a delight to teach and we are determined for them to flourish academically and socially, no matter what their starting points.

As a Church School, we firmly believe that every child has the ability to ‘let their light shine' and make a difference to the world. Our focus is on providing deep and rich learning experiences that provides them with the knowledge and skills to succeed in life, yet also prepares them morally and spiritually so that they can live life in all its fullness and make a contribution to their local, national and global community as citizens of the modern world. Every child matters to us and we celebrate diversity, uniqueness and challenge stereotypes in order to be ‘Good Samaritans'; helping others, no matter what.

We offer breadth and depth of curriculum experience whilst also ensuring that the children continue to excel and progress in the core skills of reading, writing and maths. More detail on our school can be found on our website www.highashschool.co.uk and interested candidates are encouraged to take a look before applying to find out more about us, our vision and our practice.

Our school is also very committed to the wellbeing and development of its staff. Our Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team are highly motivated and fully supportive of all of our staff members; our pupils are hardworking pupils who respond well to staff who take the time to understand them. We have effective CPD from local and national sources and we firmly believe in giving teachers the time and support needed to develop their craft through a mix of peer support and networking as well as specialist led CPD and school improvement.
