As a school, we work hard to provide a curriculum matched to the needs, interests and abilities of our children, in an atmosphere of trust, friendship and mutual respect and in an environment that is attractive, stimulating and supportive of learning. We are proud of the range of experiences that we offer at our school in the arts, sport, modern languages, community and international links which enrich the curriculum offer.
This is your opportunity to have a significant impact upon our amazing children and families by ensuring the highest standards of education leading to achievement for all. We require a strategic leader who has the vision, integrity and interpersonal skills to lead our school as we seek to grow the school to greater achievements.
