This is an exciting time – for us as a school, and for you, our prospective Headteacher.

Our Headteacher has decided to retire and is leaving a thriving school, proud of its achievements, and with the confidence and self-belief that we can always be better. With a unified and motivated team, we believe we can offer our new Headteacher a career choice that could be both hugely enjoyable and rewarding. A career choice that opens up an opportunity to leave your own mark on a very popular and historic school. 

We recognize what it takes to be a Headteacher in this day and age, and we are keen to ensure that our new Head has a long and successful tenure of office. We will support you in your professional development to ensure that the experience you take out is as valuable as the experience you bring.   

Please take your time to go through the job description and person spec here and don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions at all. What’s more, visits are warmly welcomed, as we are keen to introduce you to our greatest asset, the children, whose characteristics reflect those of our school: happy, thriving and full of positive energy.  

To arrange a visit, please contact the School Office on 01892 870446 or email office@penshurst.kent.sch.uk.
