Job Summary: We are seeking to recruit a receptionist/administrator to join our busy and friendly office team. The role is varied, consisting of supporting the school with all administrative tasks and reception duties, welcoming visitors and liaising with all members of the local community. We are looking for someone with excellent interpersonal and organisational skills, a positive attitude and plenty of enthusiasm, who can work under pressure and use their own initiative. Computer competency and a good telephone manner are essential. Experience of working in a similar role is desirable but not essential as training will be given on the job.

We are very proud to have recently secured an “outstanding” Ofsted grade once again. In March 2022, Ofsted said:

•    Pupils thrive at Belleville. They speak with enthusiasm about the rich curriculum they learn. Pupils behave very well and engage positively with their learning.

•    Staff are proud to work at Belleville. They receive extensive professional development. They feel their workload is well managed by leaders who welcome their input on how the school operates. Teachers at the very beginning of their career feel especially well supported.

Belleville is part of the Quality First Education (Q1E) Trust, a multi-academy trust that was established in 2017. We have four schools: Belleville Primary School and Belleville Wix Academy in Battersea/Clapham, The Alton School in Roehampton and Churchfields Primary School in Beckenham. Teachers across our schools plan and train together and support one another. There are many opportunities to work across the trust and we pride ourselves on our strong career development options for teachers.
