Are you looking for a headship in a happy, engaged and oversubscribed school?

Do you aspire to lead to ensure the well-being, education and development of children?

Due to the retirement of our longstanding Headteacher, the Governing Body seeks to appoint an inspiring leader and outstanding practitioner as their new Headteacher from September 2021.

We want a candidate who is excited to work, develop and nurture the most important and valuable thing we have; our children.

We take seriously this responsibility to ensure that they become the very best they can be.

Our school values of trust, tolerance, compassion and forgiveness form the basis of our school community and the way we live and learn together. We want our children and young people to flourish academically, be rounded individuals and ultimately be valuable and kind members of our community.

• Is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of all

• Eager and enthusiastic children who are keen to learn
• A well-resourced and inspiring learning environment

We fully realise that no candidate will necessarily have all these skills and qualities, but we seek someone who is prepared to grow and develop in this way alongside those they will work with.
