Headteacher

The Children, Staff and Governors of Moorfield Primary School are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspirational Headteacher to follow in the footsteps of our highly successful Headteacher who is leaving the school at the end of the academic year.

Moorfield is a 'good' Primary School in Halton with an excellent reputation. This is an exciting opportunity to lead a thriving and high achieving school with the potential to build on its success.
Although Moorfield is already 'good', there are many opportunities for our new Headteacher to use their vision, experience and drive to help the school grow and develop to 'outstanding' and to nurture its special ethos.

Moorfield is a popular, happy and friendly school where children enjoy learning and are given every opportunity to reach their full potential. It aims to provide a safe, secure and stimulating environment where children feel valued and respected and are motivated to become independent and confident learners and thinkers who will become responsible, trustworthy and caring members of society.

The pupils, staff, governors and parents are looking for someone who will:

•  have a background in teaching but also a proven track record in leadership and managerial ability;
• strive to maintain the special nature of our school.
• continue to provide our pupils with a happy, safe and secure environment * offer a reassuring presence to maintain all the qualities that make us a 'good school with outstanding features' (Ofsted 2012).
• use their vision to develop new opportunities to expand and build on our existing success. At our school you will find:
•  happy, bright, well balanced and enthusiastic children;
•  a caring, supportive environment between staff and children;
•  an inspirational, forward looking leadership team and dedicated, experienced staff;
• supportive governors and parents; Responsible to the Governing Body and the Local Authority
