Heber is a vibrant community primary school in East Dulwich, South London. We have a growing reputation for high standards in English and Mathematics allied to particular success in the Arts, PE and Computing. Our commitment to Inclusion means that we are sought out by parents of children with Special Educational Needs.

• A thoughtful, forward-looking leader who will put the children's development, happiness and best interests at the heart of their decision-making.

• A communicative and personable leadership style that encourages enthusiasm and passion in our committed staff, governors and our highly-engaged parents.

In return, we offer you:

• An opportunity to be the person to take a good school and make it outstanding

• A commitment to your professional development

• A diverse and happy community of children who are keen to learn

• A committed and hard-working staff

• A highly engaged and supportive parent body
