Due to the retirement of the current Junior School Head, we are inviting applications from candidates with exceptional leadership skills. 

Farringtons Junior School is a buzzing, thriving and exciting place with a meaningful enriched, innovative and creative curriculum.

We believe strongly that learning should not be limited to the classroom nor measured solely by performance in exams. We place great emphasis on providing opportunities for pupils to pursue a wide range of extra-curricular interests, developing the art of leadership, teamwork and all important soft skills. This is seen, not only in Sport, but also in Music, Drama and the Arts through a vibrant activities programme.

This position offers a truly outstanding opportunity for an ambitious, dynamic, energetic and collaboratively-minded leader to make a real impact on ensuring Farringtons Junior School is the top School of choice in the local area. 

The closing date for applications: Wednesday 24 February 2021

Shortlisted candidates will be invited for initial interview with the Selection Committee on Monday 8 March and Tuesday 9 March 2021. Successful candidates will then be invited to attend a site visit to Farringtons School before the final stage interviews to be held on Friday 19 March 2021.
