Headteacher

Gentleness, hope, dignity, justice, companionship and excellence

Bellerive FCJ is a highly successful all-girls academy with a sixth form, built on strong foundations and commitment to mission. Situated in Liverpool adjacent to the beautiful Sefton Park, it serves students from across the city and beyond which adds to the richness of the school community.

Governors are seeking to appoint a headteacher who can continue to build on the many successes of Bellerive FCJ Catholic College, grow student numbers in the sixth form and ensure that we deliver the best educational opportunities for each student from Year 7-13.

We are therefore seeking to appoint a practising Catholic leader who is highly ambitious for students, a strategic thinker with proven senior leadership credentials. Indeed, we seek a leader with the energy, passion and resilience to transform student’s lives through education.

This post is an opportunity for a collaborative leader looking to extend their experience of Headship or start their first ‘headship’ in a highly serving Christian environment, where students and teachers matter.

In shaping the future of the school, you will be supported by a very forward-thinking governing body and imaginative and creative staff. Bellerive is a community strong in companionship where the unique gifts of every person are recognised, nourished, and celebrated.
