We are looking to recruit a Headteacher who:

  • has excellent leadership, management, communication and personal skills
  • is able to be highly visible and inspire staff, pupils, parents and the local community
  • will encourage all to engage with our school vision, values and goals all of which will impact on our school’s development

We can offer you:

  • a school with ambitions to grow and develop
  • the opportunity of working closely with supportive and encouraging parents
  • fabulous children who are happy, motivated and engaged and who enjoy learning and coming to school
  • a respected place within the local community, benefitting from close links with the church community

If you are an existing Headteacher or a successful member of a leadership team with a proven track record of raising standards, we would be delighted to hear from you.
