We are seeking to appoint an experienced, dedicated, and enthusiastic school leader to join our school as Head of School from September 2024. We are open-minded about your career history. You may have gained experience as a Deputy or an Assistant Head; you may already be a Head of School. You might be working in a system leadership role within an Academy Trust. Quality of experience, and what you have learnt from it, is what's important.
What do we look for in a leader?
We want our school leaders to be effective communicators who are proactive and hands on. They raise academic standards and inspire both staff and pupils to foster a love of learning. They juggle multiple demands on their time with a sense of perspective. They are visible within school and, perhaps most importantly, they approach their roles with a smile and a sense of fun. Being a school leader is a serious business, but we should not take ourselves too seriously.
Why should you apply?
We offer the opportunity to work with some lovely young people and expert colleagues in a trust that values good wellbeing, promotes equality and inclusion and celebrates diversity. There are professional development opportunities via our SEEAT Institute and there are opportunities for additional trust-wide responsibilities.
Next Steps...
We'd love to show you around our school so you can get a feel of what we're about and meet some of our fantastic staff and children. If you'd like to have a conversation with Glenn, Executive Headteacher, or arrange a school visit, please don't hesitate to contact Laura Hamlyn, Office Manager on 01702 558619.
