Waterton Academy Trust is seeking to appoint a skilled and committed Class Teacher with SENCO Teacher to join the team at Kings Oak Primary in Wombwell, Barnsley.

Currently, the Trust comprises 16 primary schools, two independent special schools and five pre-schools across Wakefield and Barnsley. Kings Oak Primary joined the Trust in September 2025. As part of the Trust, staff and pupils benefit from strong professional networks and opportunities to work together across schools.

The SENCO will play a central role in strengthening leadership, supporting staff development and securing consistent practice across the school. Working closely with the Interim Head of School, Executive Headteacher and Trust leaders, the successful candidate will help build a strong culture, maintain high expectations and support continued improvement.

This role would suit an experienced leader who is ready to take on wider responsibility and who is committed to improving outcomes for all pupils. We are looking for someone who leads with clarity, builds strong relationships and has the determination to make a positive difference every day.

We strongly encourage prospective candidates to visit Kings Oak Primary Academy, meet our wonderful children and staff, and experience our school community for themselves.

Visits will take place during the week commencing 16th and 23rd November 2026. To arrange a visit, please contact the school office on 01226 272740.
