Skinners’ Academy, Hackney, is seeking a new Vice Principal from April 2019, following the promotion of the current post holder to the headship of a very large neighbouring school.   

The Academy is an oversubscribed, vibrant, multi-cultural comprehensive school serving a significantly deprived area of London, but with an enviable reputation for extremely high standards of pupil behaviour and Wellbeing both locally and beyond.

In addition to continually rising academic standards (consistently above national average) the Academy is also proud of its commitment to extra-curricular activities and to the development of the whole person: sport, music and drama all thrive.

The Vice Principal is involved in all aspects of the Academy’s development and day to day management (including all academic and curricular matters) but has a specific responsibility for Safeguarding, Wellbeing and the Academy’s highly developed pastoral system.

We are seeking someone with the relevant drive, determination, experience and skill set to help lead the Academy to even greater success in the future.

Prospective candidates are warmly welcomed to visit the school. If you would like to discuss the role please call Tim Clark, Principal on 020 8800 7411

Closing Date: 14 November 2018 – Midday 

Interview Dates: 19 and 20 November 2018 

Please note this post allows substantial access to children. Therefore in accordance with our Safer Recruitment Policy the successful candidate will be required to apply for, and hold, an enhanced DBS (Disclosure & Barring Services) certificate. The Academy will arrange this for you prior to you taking up your post.

About Skinners' Academy

Our Vision:

‘Be the best you can’ this is what we ask of our pupils and staff.

  • We provide a welcoming, caring and stimulating environment with excellent teaching facilities.
  • We have pupils who strive to maximise their achievement and are fully supported by parents who work with us in partnership.
  • We have excellent transport links; 5 min walk from the bus stop or 7 min walk      from Manor House tube station which serves the Piccadilly Line.
