Headteacher

Are you the Headteacher to lead our School in the next stage of our development?

Park Road is a friendly School which values and promotes positive relationships with its community and places the child at the centre of all its work. The school is improving and is looking to build on its recent successes. Our aim is to ensure that all our children leave the School as successful, well-rounded learners, ready for the next stage in their journey.

Our children are polite, enthusiastic and happy. Our dedicated staff are committed to creating an exciting and vibrant school so that pupils are able to learn and develop. Our equally dedicated Governing Body skilfully supports and challenges the School to ensure that children receive the very best education and care. We are seeking to appoint a new Headteacher to join and lead our team.

This is an exceptional opportunity for the right candidate. We are seeking an existing Headteacher, or an ambitious leader, to join our school at an exciting stage on its journey to excellence.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff are subject to an enhanced DBS check. A conviction may not exclude candidates from appointment but will be considered as part of the recruitment process.
