About the vacancy:

Cramlington Village Primary School is looking for a committed volunteer to join their board.

Cramlington Village Primary School (CVPS) opened in 2012 as a Single Academy Trust after consulting hundreds of local parents. The school provides the highest quality education evidenced through academic results for the children. CVPS offers practical first-hand experiences and play-based but challenging learning opportunities. We have high expectations and aspirations, but firmly believe that learning should be fun and relevant to life.
