Rose Hill Primary School is a friendly and welcoming school on the southern outskirts of Oxford City Centre. We serve a diverse community of families from a range of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. We pride ourselves on our school values and sense of community that foster a love for learning.

Education has the power to improve lives, communities, and society. At RLT, we believe that working together rather than alone can achieve more for our pupils, trainees, staff, and communities. Schools in RLT are united by a common belief in the benefits of working together and by our commitment to shared principles.

The school reserves the right to consider and interview candidates ahead of the closing date if appropriate. In this instance, an exceptional candidate may be offered a position.

OUR VISION is for our schools and SCITT to improve rapidly, continuously and sustainably: to be better faster together.

OUR ‘WHY?’ is that children and young people ‘only get one go’ in school, and therefore, as part of RLT, we aim to ensure the best possible ‘go’ for our pupils.

OUR ‘HOW?’ is through the highest support and challenge for our schools and each other, underpinned by our principles.

Our employees benefit from a wide variety of support including extensive continuing professional learning and development opportunities, wellbeing and staff networks and access to Defined Benefit Pension Schemes (TPS and LGPS) for all staff. For more information on what it is like to work for the Trust, and the benefits you could access, please see our “Working in RLT” guide. This role includes regulated activity relevant to children.
