Headteacher

This is an amazing opportunity to lead a brand new school at the heart of a growing community. Sherford Vale opened in September 2018 in purpose built accommodation within extensive grounds.   There are already over 100 children, aged 2 – 11 years being taught by a dedicated staff team and supported by a strong local governing board and trust.

We are looking for a proven leader who:

• Is an inspirational Headteacher with a proven track record of success including change management;
• Can demonstrate excellent organisational skills and has a sound understanding of primary education including early years.
• Believes in an inclusive school, is passionate about teaching and learning and has a clear understanding of leading a creative curriculum alongside academic excellence;
• Possesses a clear and wide-ranging vision for school improvement;
• Builds confidence, recognises potential, celebrates achievement and possesses a commitment to whole school professional development;
• Has the determination, enthusiasm & vision to meet the challenge of driving this great school forward and working effectively as part of a multi academy trust.

If you are willing to provide a visible and accessible presence within the whole school community, then we can offer you the opportunity to work in a brand new school with highly motivated pupils, a skilled and supportive staff team and governing body, an enthusiastic Friends Association and supportive parents.

For an information pack and application form please visit the school website:  www.sherfordvaleschool.co.uk or the Trust website www.westst.org.uk

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
