Applications are welcome from both existing and aspiring Head teachers who:

• share our commitment to a nurturing ethos and high standards of professionalism;

• have senior leadership experience and a track record in school improvement;

• have competency in new technologies and are analytical in their evaluations of every facet of school performance;

• will go the extra mile to help every one of our pupils and staff to achieve their best. To the successful candidate we offer:

• welcoming, forward thinking and committed staff and senior leadership who work exceptionally well as an open, transparent and supportive team;

• a team who actively share their expertise with colleagues in other educational establishments;

• experienced, supportive and informed governors;

• excellent facilities for both IT, in our IT suite; and PE and Sporting Activities on our extensive grounds, of five acres;

• respectful, impeccably behaved, inquisitive and happy children who love to learn.
