Are you ready for your next leadership challenge?
Comberton Primary school is a successful, happy school where pupils thrive. Due to the retirement of our current deputy head, we are looking for a dynamic and caring leader to become part of our dedicated team.
The successful candidate will provide inspirational leadership to pupils, staff and families as well embracing the ethos and intent of our school. The post is non-teaching and our deputy will lead key aspects of school development that may include safeguarding, the curriculum, teaching and learning or SEND (depending on candidates’ strengths and experiences).
Our most recent Ofsted inspection (January 2020) recognised that:
• Pupils thrive at this happy school. They are safe and well cared for. They develop positive attitudes to learning and behave well. Pupils work and play together happily and treat adults and each other with respect.
• The headteacher has created a united and hard-working team. Staff have high expectations of pupils and want the best for them, and this pays off.
• Parents and carers are full of praise for the school.
• Pupils enjoy all aspects of school life, including the wide range of clubs, trips and events on offer.
• Pupils’ attainment in reading, writing and mathematics is above the national average at the end of key stages1 and 2.
• Staff are positive about the support they receive from leaders. All are proud to be part of the school.
• Pupil safety is of paramount importance to all adults and is taken very seriously.
