Application Closing Date: 12pm Monday 3rd February 

Interview Date: 10th February

Are you a passionate Education Practitioner, looking to lead an Ofsted rated ‘Good’ school?

We are currently looking to appoint a Headteacher to join our Trust and lead one of our Ofted rated ‘Good’ schools. You will be joining a dedicated and committed teaching team, who put the education of our students first. Our school motto is “Inspiring learning for life” which was agreed by all teachers, students and parents to reflect the importance of every single child and an all-rounded education which goes beyond the classroom. We are a supportive school based in a scenic Norfolk village, approximately 30 minutes’ drive away from Norwich.

This role would ideally suit an individual who is looking to turn ‘Good’ to ‘Excellent’, and in return we are offering a competitive salary package and the full backing and resources of the Sapientia Education Trust who currently run 13 schools in Norfolk and Suffolk. The Trust prides themselves on having a team of supportive Headteachers, where experience and knowledge is shared to achieve success. Your personal development is also important to us, so we offer training opportunities such as; CPD through Teaching School Alliance and a peer review process.  

This is an exciting opportunity to lead our school through the next stages of development and would suit either an experienced Headteacher or a Deputy looking for a first headship.

We are very proud of our School and would highly recommend arranging a visit and tour before any application, to see if we are the right place for you!
