Swaffield School

Staff

Meet 'Team Swaffield'

Every member of staff matters to us and we are proud of our happy and safe environment where everyone can thrive ensuring that every child at Swaffield matters.

The number of staff deployed to a class will vary depending on the needs of the children. Some teaching assistants will work with just one class and will be there for the whole school day. Others will support in a variety of classes. Some will also be helping to supervise lunchtime and be joining in with activities and games in the playground.

The day to day running of the school, and strategic decisions that will affect the future, are made by the Headteacher with the help of her Senior Leadership Team.
