Our School
Hightown Junior Infant and Nursery School is a successful and well-respected single form primary school, serving a fantastic community in Liversedge. We are in the process of becoming part of Learning Accord Multi Academy Trust.
At Hightown Junior Infant and Nursery School our vision is to provide the highest possible quality of education and personal development for our children so that they are 'strong enough to shine' both now and in the future.
Our classrooms are led by compassionate, enthusiastic, and highly skilled educators who value the development and wellbeing of each child under their supervision. We cherish and appreciate the distinctiveness of each of our children and strive to assist them in growing confidently and flourishing in their unique identity.
Our rich, broad curriculum allows children to develop the necessary knowledge and skills to achieve the best possible outcomes, fulfil their potential and move on to the next phase of their education as successful and ambitious learners who are 'strong enough to shine'.

We are looking for an ambitious, talented and caring individual to join our exceptional team. We always work hard to make our practice as good as it possibly can be for all the children. This is a unique opportunity to make your mark and make a real difference.
