Deputy Headteacher

St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School is a two form entry school with nearly 400 pupils and is located towards the North of Northampton.  St Gregory’s joined the St Thomas of Canterbury Catholic Academies Trust in April 2016 and is one of three Catholic primary schools with strong links to the only Catholic Secondary School in Northamptonshire; all 4 schools work closely together within the Trust.

The school is seeking a practising Roman Catholic Deputy Headteacher who is really inspired by the journey so far and is excited to support the Headteacher and the Senior Leadership Team to embrace the opportunities that the school has to offer.  This role is key to building leadership capacity within the school, expanding and embedding the dedicated work of the existing senior leadership team. 

With the support of the Trust, St Gregory’s is on an incredible journey of school improvement.  Through a relentless focus on end of Key Stage outcomes, a strong emphasis on staff development and additional day-to-day support with financial and operational management, we have built the foundations for a bright and exciting future for this school.

What the school needs now is a dedicated and outstanding teacher who has worked at senior level and who will be committed to taking St Gregory’s on the journey through to ‘good’ and beyond .

This would be the ideal opportunity for an experienced teacher who is seeking their first Deputy headship, or someone looking for their next exciting leadership challenge in a growing and expanding Trust.
