United Learning is a national group of schools whose main aim is to provide excellent education to children and young people across the country. We seek to improve the life chances of all the children and young people we serve and make it our mission to bring out “the best in everyone” – students, staff, parents and the wider community. We uniquely comprise schools in both the state and the independent sectors.
This is a unique opportunity for an inspirational leader to improve the education of children across our primary schools. You will work with schools in the northern region to support the development, implementation and evaluation of their strategic plans, improve effectiveness and collaboration, develop a network for shared practice and identify collective needs for training and improvement.
As Regional Director, you will harness this opportunity, supported through the resource and expertise from United Learning, to drive continued improvement. Expertise, and a record of success, in leading significant change and improvement will be key, as will your vision and ambition. Experience of a specialism will be looked on favourably.
Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance. As a Group, we can reward our staff better, with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed.
Candidates will be northern based; however, travel will be required. Full year or term time only contracts will be considered. In return, we offer a competitive remuneration package.

United Learning is a large, and growing, group of schools, across both primary and secondary phases, and the state and independent sectors. We aim to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.
Our teachers are passionate about their work. We know that teaching can be a tough profession, but with the right support and a commitment to seeing the best in each other, we work tirelessly to find creative ways to educate. By working as a team, we can achieve more together by sharing than any single teacher, department or school could alone. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.
As a group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed.
To produce the best learning experiences for our pupils, we believe it’s essential to enhance the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) capabilities of both teachers and support staff, and our range of programmes, facilitated by the United Learning Institute support your to develop and progress within your career.
Our rewards and wellbeing programmes help us show we care about you. We're working with experts in the field to introduce a Group-wide wellbeing programme to support you every day, and every academy offers at least eight INSET days per academic year, with three solely dedicated to planning. Additionally, you can access a range of flexible benefits that suit your lifestyle, from reduced childcare costs and gym memberships, to cycle to work and health programmes, hundreds of retail discounts, and many more.
Teaching is a challenging – yet fantastic – profession. It takes a dedicated practitioner with a solid team of support staff behind them to make a real difference to a child’s life.
That’s why we believe so passionately in the power of sharing. When everyone is working together towards the same goal, we enrich life for every member of staff. Our pupils can expect an outstanding education from a committed team of practitioners that share one core value – to see children and young people achieve their full potential. It's an ethos we call the best in everyone’.
It’s a challenging brief, but one that we’re meeting with a skilled workforce who are supported every step of the way.
