Relationships with parents are excellent; with families eager to support the school and their children’s learning.

The current Headmaster has been appointed to a new role in an international school in the Far East. Following a successful ISI inspection in June 2017, this is an excellent opportunity for a new Headteacher to take Netherleigh and Rossefield School to another level.

  • actively promote the school’s strengths and ethos and develop the role played by the school in the local community;
  • maintain a culture of excellent pupil behaviour;
  • be committed to providing a safe and supportive school environment.
  • be flexible and adaptable – no two days are the same for the Head of a small prep school!

We can offer:

  • a happy, safe learning environment in which every child develops a love of learning
