Your work will be challenging and rewarding in equal measure and you will be the custodian of our strong safeguarding culture, where pupils are listened to, respected and involved in as many decisions as possible.

Eventually, you will line manage a team and deliver clear, authentic leadership, establishing a school vision and strategic plan, which inspires your team to deliver high levels of safety, quality, compliance, and dedication. You will ensure your school have effective management and an engaged, high performing team to deliver outstanding education and care.
