Deputy Headteacher

Following the appointment of our Deputy Head to the Headship of a London preparatory school, we are looking to appoint a dynamic, innovative and outstanding Deputy Head to join the Leadership Team of Gatehouse School.

Gatehouse School, which is part of the Phyllis Wallbank Educational Trust, is a flourishing, non-selective, independent school in the heart of the East End.  We are proud of our inclusive and friendly ethos which sets out to provide the best education possible for children, establishing a modern outlook on primary education while ensuring that it retains the key values on which it was first founded. 

The successful applicant will benefit from being part of a professional, supportive staff team as well as a competitive salary package. This is an excellent opportunity for an outstanding teacher or existing senior manager to join our highly successful school which was rated as outstanding during our 2011 ISI inspection. As sole Deputy Head you will have responsibility for providing the vision and educational direction for our school by leading curriculum development and assessment.

Visits to the school are encouraged and the staff and children look forward to welcoming you.

Gatehouse School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with previous employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
