Start date ASAP or September 2025

Whitehill Primary School is looking for an exceptional leader to join its caring team and
take on the role of Deputy Headteacher. We are looking for someone who passionately
believes in education being a force for good and that through education we can improve
the chances of life long success for all.


Whitehill Primary School was established to serve the local Gravesend community in
1926, and expanded in 1931. We are proud of its heritage and dedicated to supporting the
local community. We currently have 580 children on roll. We have a thriving Nursery and
cater for all primary age groups.


The school has hit a pivotal point in its journey with improvements noted in its most
recent Ofsted inspection. We need a leader to support the Headteacher and under her
direction ensure that all teaching is inspirational, leads to aspirational thinking and
successful futures for all. You can read more about the Head’s vision and intended direction
for the school by clicking HERE


The Deputy Headteacher we seek must be tenacious, solution focused, have an appetite
for improvement and drive for success. You will need to be prepared for tackling difficult
situations innovatively, and using your leadership ability to model and develop success in
others. If you are passionate about teaching, believe that all children deserve the very best
of starts, and have the resilience to pursue this goal then we would love to hear from you.
