The Governors of Brigstock Latham’s CE Primary School wish to appoint, on a full-time basis, an energetic, creative, decisive and inspiring Headteacher to lead this successful school.

Brigstock Latham’s Primary School is situated in the heart of rural North Northamptonshire, located between Kettering and Corby in the centre of the delightful village of Brigstock. The school was graded ‘Good’ by Ofsted in 2018. In its latest church school inspection (SIAMS) the school was graded ‘Outstanding’.

There is a positive and distinctive Christian ethos in this popular village school which is evident in the close relationships visible in the school and children, emanating out to the wider community.

The school has a dedicated supportive team of staff, parents and Governors who work together, within a strong Christian environment, to create a special family. Our aim is to give all children the best start in life. The school is a vital, integral part of the village community.

  • has a flexible approach to work.
  • is a teacher at heart, able to inspire others to learn and promote a broad, balanced curriculum that meets all children's needs. The successful candidate will be teaching as well as leading.
  • is driven, ambitious and enthusiastic.
