Headteacher

St Aidan's Catholic Primary School, a highly regarded and oversubscribed 1FE Catholic primary academy, rated Good (Ofsted 2018) and Outstanding (S48 2022), is a truly remarkable school with extraordinary potential to build upon and further advance its well-earned reputation as an exemplar of good practice in Catholic education.

The school is well known for its strong links with the parishes of St Aidan's Coulsdon and St Mary's Old Coulsdon and the catholic communities it serves, and as a result is consistently oversubscribed with catholic applicants. The school is a truly authentic and vibrant community - with happy, well cared for children enjoying the support of committed staff, knowledgeable and supportive Governors and a dynamic School Association. 

Pupils exceed national averages for attainment and progress, and benefit from a vast range of extra curricular activities. The school has an excellent provision for sports and music and offers more than 15 different extra curricular activities each week; all located within a spacious site with excellent facilities.

If, as a first-time or existing Head, you believe you can offer the leadership qualities which inspires and motivates others towards excellence and which will ensure the very best education for our children, then we would love to hear from you.

A requirement of the post is that applicants must be practising Catholics.
