Why Work at Benthal?

"As a once TA, student and NQT, I've worked at and experienced quite a few schools and settings over the past few years but I can honestly say none quite match up to Benthal's humbleness, kindness, uniqueness, caring and open ways. The curriculum is exciting and teachers are always given opportunities to explore, expand and share their own ideas within each subject."

"Teaching is open at Benthal but at the same time very well structured and supported. The children are absolutely fantastic; the schools behaviour system and approach to learning means happy, engaging, kind and excited pupils who are always ready to learn something new. As for the staff, my colleagues, I couldn't ask for a more supportive, enthusiastic, approachable and outstanding group of people to continue my teaching career with."

"As a pupil at Benthal, opportunities here are endless. From in school music lessons, orchestras workshops, special visitors, learning weeks such as 'Art Week', new learning, new equipment, a creative curriculum, day trips, residential trips, individual, class and whole school projects, the list goes on and on! It's an amazing place to be for a child in their primary years."

"As a teacher, I began here as a student and I'm now currently a year 3 teacher, subject leader for Art & DT and even get to run a weekly animation club! I've been allowed to explore so much here and have been given the opportunity to improve my own skills and learning to help make Benthal the brilliant place it is today. I even got to paint a giant swift on the school's main hall wall for a whole school project! Every person, big or small has the opportunity to grow as a person at Benthal, it's just fantastic."
