Believe Achieve Succeed

The Harmony Trust is a collaborative, successful and expanding network of primary academies located in Oldham and Derby. Every child, regardless of context, should have access to a quality education and to do this we’re setting new standards of educational excellence. Together, we nurture supportive and caring learning environments with high expectations and a culture of no excuses.

We deliver this through a team of exceptionally talented individuals that we invest heavily in. As part of our continued growth, we’re looking to appoint into a wide range of roles including a new Assistant Principal at Northmoor Academy.

Northmoor Academy is a brand-new school that launched in September 2016. After opening with one form of entry we are now in a period of planned growth and by September 2018 will be at full capacity - with 630 students on roll and three forms of entry.

Located in central Oldham, the academy serves and incredibly diverse and vibrant community, with over 20 languages spoken. Many students are international new arrivals and Northmoor is often a child’s first experience of education. It’s an incredibly happy, exciting and rewarding place to work.

If you’re a talented teaching professional, with an unwavering commitment to providing the best educational and life chances for children - and you’re looking for a leadership role that will sharpen your skills and challenge you every day, then we want to hear from you. 

Ideally, you’ll bring experience of KS2 and delivering exceptional outcomes in Year 6 - but we’re always on the lookout for brilliant people, so regardless, get in touch. 

You’ll join other forward thinking and fantastically talented practitioners. We’ll set you off on a bespoke development pathway and ensure you have every opportunity to work trust-wide on cutting edge curriculum projects through our Teaching School Alliance. It’s a career defining opportunity like no other.
