Brenzett has reached an exciting time in its development. The school has worked in close partnership with Kingsnorth Primary under an Executive arrangement with a Head of School but is now ready to appoint a substantive headteacher. We are looking to recruit a visionary school leader who can build on our successes so far and continue to move us forward. This is a fantastic opportunity to work with the new Governing Body to deliver the knowledge rich curriculum, including outdoor learning.

Our last Ofsted inspection graded the school as good with areas of outstanding practice. We are looking for an inspirational leader who can take us those final steps to achieve outstanding in all areas.

We offer you a supportive, dedicated and aspirational staff along with pupils who are eager to do well. Numbers on roll are increasing and we are keen for this trend to continue. We are determined to ensure that our children are interested, engaged and motivated in their learning. Our school is a safe, lively and purposeful place to work and learn, reflective of a rich curriculum and positive relationships.

Our Christian values of friendship, trust, compassion and forgiveness underpin everything we do at our school. We work together as a community, within Aquila the Canterbury Diocese Multi Academy Trust, to ensure success. We foster and celebrate our supportive links with each school in the Trust. Aquila has an excellent track record of staff coaching, training, leadership development and mentoring.

We welcome visits to the school and these can be arranged by contacting the school office on 01797 344335.
