• be passionate about personal and professional development and demonstrate a willingness to engage with the findings of evidence-based research through our whole school CPD programme.
• help extend and enrich students’ school experiences beyond the curriculum
• have the ability to communicate effectively with staff, students and parents
We can offer:
• the opportunity to join an ‘Outstanding’ school – Ofsted October 2021

• a stimulating and creative environment in a school where extra curricular activities flourish
• a CPD provision tailored to your needs focusing on areas of research and development
• a diverse workplace, with an engaged student and staff community who are currently collaborating on a review of the school’s approach to equality
• a two week October half term
