Who are we?
Orchard, Southwold, and Hoxton Garden Primary Schools are based in the vibrant and diverse community of Hackney, East London with easy transport links into and out of Central London. We have a joint pupil roll of around 1,350 pupils. We are a very successful organisation with a passion for making a difference. We provide a very rich and exciting curriculum and a no-excuses culture for low standards. Because of this, our pupils achieve well above national averages regardless of their starting points and Ofsted have recognised the quality of our provision.
Orchard & Southwold have been in partnership since January 2012 with Hoxton Garden joining us in April 2014. We have a joint Governing Body and strong links to our Local Authority. Each school has its own leadership team who work together with the common aim of giving children the very best. We have set an ambitious vision for the future and have very high standards for what can be achieved with the benefits of shared expertise. We have a very skilled team of highly committed and professional teachers and leaders who work incredibly hard and there is always much to do. Staff from all three schools meet regularly to share expertise with common systems and a shared curriculum.

We want to hear from you if you are:
- 'Hands on' and committed to improving outcomes for children.
- Able to effectively deal with a diverse range of stakeholders and needs.
- A team builder and confident communicator.
- Aspirational and able to instil ambition for children in others.
- Systematic and able to hold others to account.
- Proactive rather than reactive with the ability to work to a longer-term strategic view.
