Join us on an exciting journey of transformation and excellence.

At Tapestry Learning Partnership, we believe in the power of education to change lives. Formed in January 2026 through the merger of two strong trusts, QEGSMAT and Djanogly Learning Trust, we are building a future where every child succeeds and flourishes. Now, we are looking for a passionate and committed Office Manager to play a vital role in supporting this vision at Castle View Primary School and Nursery in Matlock, Derbyshire.  

About the Role

This is more than an administrative position; it’s an opportunity to make a real difference. You’ll play a pivotal role in supporting the school’s leadership, making sure everything runs seamlessly so our Headteacher and Senior Leaders can focus on transforming students’ lives.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Providing high-level administrative and organisational support
  • Coordinating meetings for the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team
  • Managing communications and enquiries with professionalism and care
  • Liaising with staff, students, parents, carers and visitors to uphold our welcoming ethos 

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for a dynamic Office Manager who thrives in a fast-paced environment and brings exceptional organisation, attention to detail, and a warm, professional presence. You’ll lead our front-office team, keep systems running smoothly, and ensure every pupil, family, and visitor receives an outstanding first impression. You’ll need to be confident using school systems, quick to solve problems, great at juggling priorities, and calm under pressure. Strong communication, team leadership, and a proactive mindset are essential, along with a commitment to safeguarding and high standards.

If you’re someone who brings energy, efficiency, and positivity to everything you do, we’d love to hear from you. 

About Castle View Primary School and Nursery.

Castle View Primary School is an inclusive, caring school where every child matters, we recognise that all children have talents and abilities to celebrate, and a part of our role is to help them discover and develop these. We encourage a strong community spirit, where we show consideration and respect for each other; understand differences, and uphold kind, well-mannered behaviour. 

Our school vision ‘Exceeding Expectations, Raising Aspirations’ embodies our whole school values. We want our children to have high aspirations and to believe in themselves. We will ensure that all our children learn effectively, not only so they achieve as well as they can right across the curriculum, but also so they learn about themselves and others. We will do all we can to ensure our pupils are confident, aspirational and empowered to participate successfully at an academic, social and emotional level in a rapidly changing world. 

We value the partnership that exists between parents, children, staff and governors and strongly believe that by working together we ensure the children at our school experience the best possible start in life.
