Headteacher

Are you an ambitious, successful senior leader who believes in the transformational power of education?

 Huntcliff School is a rural secondary school situated in a pleasant market town in North Lincolnshire. We have dedicated and highly experienced teaching staff and an ambitious and active trustee board who work together for the best interests of the school community.

We are very proud of our achievements, are keen to celebrate success at all levels and are looking to appoint a visionary leader to lead our school into the future. We are committed to providing the highest quality of education for all of our pupils to prepare them for life in the twenty-first century as active, healthy, caring and well skilled members of a global community.

Huntcliff is a community where we all aspire to be successful, to improve on our personal best and to strive for excellence in all that we do.

Due to the retirement of the current headteacher we are looking to appoint a dynamic and compassionate individual who can continue to drive the school forward on its journey of improvement whilst keeping the well-being of children and staff at the heart of all our decisions. 

We are looking for a person who:

• Is an experienced and successful leader, either at deputy or headteacher level, in a secondary setting.
• Has a proven record of sustaining improvement and is capable of continuing the progress made at Huntcliff School.
• Shares our inclusive values and is able to translate them into effective working practices.
• Is able to lead and motivate those around them with their commitment to excellence in teaching and learning.
• Has excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
• Is able to operate effectively at a strategic level, successfully modelling and disseminating our shared vision both in school and the wider community.
