DEPUTY HEADTEACHER

Required to start: April 2025

Salary is negotiable depending on experience.

(This role is not suitable for ECTs)

We are seeking to appoint a charismatic and dynamic individual with exceptional leadership skills who can naturally inspire others. The successful leader will have the vision and commitment to drive excellence across all aspects of our improvement strategy. With a clear focus on delivering excellence, you will ensure effective leadership is in place to guarantee high standards and aspirations.

There are two aspects to this leadership role: standards at Coppice – one of our three secondary schools and, working with myself and partner Headteachers, development of our school improvement strategy across the learning hubs.

The specific nature of responsibilities will be determined by the strengths of the successful candidate. The candidate needs to be an experienced senior leader looking for a fresh challenge within a highly effective Trust.

Coppice is part of Central Learning Partnership Trust (CLPT) and works closely with our secondary partner schools within the Trust to offer a joint Post 16 offer called Central Sixth. In addition, we work in partnership with our Primary and Special Leaders, across the Trust, which provides an enormous wealth of experience and opportunity for students and staff as we learn from each other to build even further.

The successful candidate will be someone who fits into a very strong senior team, who can develop a vision for the future of our students and who understands the need to reflect and continue to learn. The successful candidate will be very well placed to further their career within Coppice and CLPT, as their capacity is realised.

If you wish to discuss this position then please contact Mrs Holloway, Chief Executive, via Jane Elwell (Executive Assistant) jane.elwell@clpt.co.uk, 01902 556360.
