Why join our team?
We are a Christian school and our desire to serve those learners in our care is rooted in our school values of Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Caring, Forgiveness, and Fairness and bible verse: “Be kind to one another, forgiving one another, as God forgave you." Ephesians 4:32
We have a vibrant and diverse student body, and we welcome children from all faiths and none. When they leave our school, our students will know and understand their place in the world, be accepting of others, and have a positive mindset, enabling them to excel in all they do.
We embrace diversity, promote equality of opportunity; we welcome applications from all community sections.
Our staff survey indicates that our staff know our values and ethos, believe students are safe at our school and are proud to be members of our community.
Set in the London Borough of Barnet, it benefits from excellent transport links – train, tube and bus – for other London boroughs and Hertfordshire.
We believe St Andrew the Apostle School is a great place to work!
