Avanti Fields School is an all-through 4 to 16 school (2 FE at primary and 6FE at secondary) that has just moved to its impressive new permanent site in the Hamilton area of Leicester. The school currently has Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 students and will open for Reception aged children from September 2022. 

This is a unique opportunity to help further develop our newest state of the art innovative school, which is shaped by three key elements for both students and staff:

We hope you like the sound of our school. Please see our Candidate Pack for more information about the school leader we seek. If you are excited to share our mission and our passion for our students and their education, then we’d love to hear from you!
