Job overview
Lambeth Academy is part of United Learning, a successful national group of academies and independent schools. Our schools share a mission to bring out ‘the best in everyone’ and to improve the life chances of the children and young people in their care.
Our developing west London cluster comprises Lambeth Academy and The Hurlingham Academy, led by Executive Principal, Leon Wilson. Our cluster model enables high quality, bespoke school improvement and wider opportunities for both staff and students to work collaboratively.
Lambeth Academy is an exciting school with a strong local reputation. We are ambitious for the school as it builds on its strengths in line with our Framework for Excellence: promoting the best in everyone; powerful knowledge; education with character; leadership in every role; and continuous improvement.
This is an excellent opportunity for a leader looking to combine the autonomy of running their own school with the benefit of working within a successful cluster and as part of a national group. United Learning prioritises collaboration, values shared practice and provides high-quality professional development.
The academy is housed in a modern, state of the art building and plays a vital part in its community. It promotes the key values of respect, tolerance and diversity, essential to ensuring that young people can thrive and have high aspirations.
As headteacher, you will demonstrate a clear commitment to the school and its community. You will model outstanding leadership and set high expectations for students and staff. Your professionalism, expertise and enthusiasm for education will be evident each and every day, in all that you do.
Lambeth is located in a highly popular and attractive area of south London, close to Clapham Common and a short walk from either Clapham Common or Clapham South tube stations, on the northern line. The academy is in easy reach of central London and its surrounding areas.
If you are looking for an exciting, challenging and highly rewarding role within a Group that offers a strong commitment to professional development, and if you have an unshakeable commitment to improving the lives of young people, we encourage you to visit us.

At The Elms Academy, we live by our school motto to ‘be exceptional’. To achieve this, we need the best staff to bring out the best in every single student. For many of our children, this means equipping them with the knowledge, ambition and skill to attend university and go on to have a meaningful career.
We have a relentless focus on high standards, whether this is on the learning in classrooms, our students’ interactions around the Academy, or in raising their aspirations. We don’t overcomplicate things: teachers teach, and students learn. Anything that takes away from this core focus has to come second. We believe exceptional learning is about determining the simple things that work, doing them well, and doing them all the time. If you’d like to join us on this mission, please come and visit us – we’d be delighted to welcome you.
