L 12 – 18  £51,639 - £59,857

Required 1st September 2018

Following the retirement of our longstanding, highly respected Headteacher, the Trust is seeking to appoint a dynamic and aspirational Headteacher to lead and build on the continuous success of our oversubscribed school (Ofsted Outstanding October 2008). The successful candidate will have a vision that embraces our values and provides genuine opportunities for all to make optimum progress and attain the highest personal achievements.

Hatfield Heath Primary School established The Learning Partnership Trust in February 2015 to meet a need in the local area. There are currently three member schools, all within 15 minutes travel of each other, and close to Bishop’s Stortford, Chelmsford, Saffron Walden and Dunmow. The M11 and Stansted Airport are close by.

The Trust has a vision for a small family of outstanding primary schools serving local communities and has an absolute commitment to the highest standards of education, across a broad curriculum, based on a ‘can-do’ culture of continuous improvement and innovation.

We are looking for an experienced Headteacher, or very experienced deputy Headteacher, with excellent communication skills and the ability and drive to lead, nurture and inspire reflective, high quality teaching and learning.  You will be a key part of the senior leadership team of the Trust, working collaboratively within the partnership. 

We have a team of dedicated, enthusiastic and hard-working staff in all areas, amazing children and a community that is passionate about their children’s education and that want to work closely with the school to keep it exceptional.

You are warmly invited to visit our school and see us at work – we feel confident that you will recognise our potential and want to be part of it. Visits are encouraged and can be arranged by appointment.
