You can expect:

  • 420 talented pupils, each deserving a leader that will willingly go that extra mile to ensure they succeed
  • A collaborative and cohesive leadership team
  • Excellent CPD including NPQSL or NPQH for the right candidate
  • A supportive school community with excellent facilities
  • The challenge and opportunity to take a pivotal role in our journey towards continued excellence

This role is class based but will have significant release time to ensure your Leader of Learning role can be fulfilled.
