Life at Our School

As a small, one-form entry primary school, Nightingale offers an environment where relationships are at the heart of school life.

You'll work alongside colleagues who know their pupils and families well, understand their individual needs and take pride in helping them succeed.

Our experienced team and approachable leaders help create a welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable asking questions, sharing ideas and contributing your strengths.

Whether you're new to education or bringing years of experience, you'll be joining a school where people look out for one another and every contribution matters.

At Nightingale, our connections with the diverse Woolwich community are an important part of who we are.

You'll have opportunities to contribute to school events, work alongside families and support initiatives that make a positive difference beyond the classroom.

From our Eco-Schools work to being recognised as Superkind's Social Impact School of the Year, kindness, social responsibility and community involvement are reflected in the experiences we create for children.

It's a school where you can feel proud not only of the learning you support, but also of the wider difference you help make.

Our values of Respect, Confidence and Excellence aren't simply words displayed around our school. They help guide the way we work together and the experiences we create for children.

Respect means recognising and celebrating the different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives within our school community.

Confidence means encouraging children to believe in themselves, try new things and develop their individual strengths.

Excellence means having high expectations, celebrating progress and working together to help every child achieve their potential.

As a colleague at Nightingale, you'll play an active part in bringing these values to life through the relationships you build and the example you set each day.
