Headteacher

COVID-19 UPDATE: We continue to strongly encourage applications for this post. Shortlisting will still take place at the agreed date, although the assessment centre and interviews may be delayed. The school has interim arrangements for a potential January start. Should the process be postponed beyond the April deadline for resignation, and a serving headteacher is appointed, the start date will be 1st January 2021 rather than 1st September 2020. This later start date will apply regardless if the interviews are held after 31st May. Please contact Scott Glover (details below) if you would like to discuss further.

‘Excellence for All’

Warren Road Primary School is a friendly and well-respected academy at the heart of a diverse and welcoming community. The school is recognised nationally and locally for its exceptional achievements, and in 2012 became a National Teaching School. We are looking to recruit an innovative, consultative and visionary leader who is able to draw on their learning and experience in other schools to lead Warren Road.

The appointed headteacher will:

• be a visible and accessible leader, promoting the school and working with parents, carers and the wider community
• have senior leadership experience and a proven track record of whole school improvement
• be solution-focussed and have the strategic vision to secure the best outcomes for a large primary academy
• have ambitious aspirations for all our children and the ability to motivate and inspire every child to reach their full potential
• lead an outward-looking, collaborative school while working with a governing body that values and promotes Warren Road’s independence as a single academy trust
• develop leadership throughout the school, driving the professional development of all our staff members

In return, we can offer a:

• wonderful school environment with engaged, well-behaved children and a supportive local community
• talented, committed and ambitious staff team and governing body 
• strong commitment to your ongoing professional development

We fully embrace new ideas and understand that you will want to make your mark. If this sounds like you, please get in touch.

Warren Road Primary is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We require the successful applicant to undertake an enhanced criminal records check via the Disclosure & Barring Service.
