Deputy Headteacher

‘With Jesus we love, learn and pray: to grow in the St Cuthbert’s way.’

Are you an excellent teacher and leader who cares deeply about the ‘development of the whole child’?

Do you want to work in a school where your drive and energy will make a real difference to the lives of our children?

Will you be an innovative leader who inspires our school community?

As a school we have achieved a great deal. A new Headteacher was appointed in September 2018 and our entire team is on journey to continue to raise achievement and ensure an excellent and enriched curriculum. Staff and governors strive to provide the best possible educational experiences for all our children.

Due to the retirement of our highly regarded Deputy, the Governors wish to appoint a teacher and leader with a proven track record of excellent classroom practice; who is child centred and will support our school values. The governing board are looking for an exceptional individual who can help us to build upon the strong foundations established in recent years. To come with innovative ideas and approaches, particularly in curriculum development, teaching and learning, that will take us forward. Somebody with a desire to achieve even more for our children.

It is envisaged that the primary role will be leadership, management and school improvement., . 

You will join a school with:

• Amazing children, who work hard and are enthusiastic about learning.
• Families who are appreciative of the work we do.
• Motivated staff (at all levels) who are committed to continuously improving their teaching; and are open to new ideas.
• An experienced governing board who will offer strong support.
• Established links with the local community and parish.
• A variety of successful collaborations with partner schools, the Local Authority and the Archdiocese.
• An experienced and supportive senior leadership team.
• A number of high-quality middle/subject leaders
