Job overview
The Trustees are looking to appoint an outstanding Headteacher to lead our Plymouth campus from April or September 2018. We are a small, successful Y3-13 mixed independent school with a strong Christian ethos located in the coastal city of Plymouth in Devon.
The school has undergone a rapid and sustained transformation in recent times and is a strong member of the OneSchool organisation (the largest body of independent schools in the world). The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate capacity to take us even further.
