Deputy Headteacher job summary
The Governing Body of Eastburn Junior and Infant School is seeking to appoint a dedicated, enthusiastic and motivated Deputy Headteacher to join our committed and passionate team. The right candidate will be an outstanding practitioner who is innovative and inspirational, possessing the leadership skills and vision to support the Headteacher in driving our school forward in the next stage of its development.
The successful candidate will initially be responsible for curriculum development, and act as phonics lead across school. The role also involves a 0.4 teaching commitment, so applicants will need to demonstrate their own passion for teaching and excellence within the classroom teacher role.
In due course, there may be the opportunity for the right candidate to reduce their teaching commitment and lead on SEND and Inclusion, so experience of this role is also highly desirable.

All posts are subject to an enhanced DBS check, satisfactory references and online checks in accordance with Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance.

Eastburn Junior and Infant School is a one-form entry primary school that sits at the edge of the Bradford Local Authority district close to the border with North Yorkshire (Skipton). The school has a current roll of 210 pupils, drawn largely from Eastburn and the surrounding villages.
The School was established in 1896 and we value greatly its strong community identity and heritage. Our journey over the last 18 months has reinforced the importance of sustaining strong links with families throughout our community, and in proactively seeking parental / carer involvement and feedback. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID pandemic, we believe that the School has succeeded in deepening its community contribution over the last year. We fully intend to build on this going forward.
At Eastburn, the idea of “life-long learning” sits at the heart of our approach to education. We believe it is essential that all pupils build the knowledge, skills, attitudes, behaviours and personal confidence to help them succeed at whatever they do, now and in the long-term. We are committed to giving all of our pupils the help and support they need to fulfil their potential.
We take it as read that our broad curriculum fully integrates stretching academic expectations with effective spiritual, social and cultural development priorities. Our strong inclusion approach means that we can address individual learning needs, thereby allowing all pupils to grow and thrive. We take our safeguarding responsibilities very seriously and fully recognise that pupils learn best when they feel safe.
We listen carefully to feedback from all our stakeholders: pupils, parents/carers, the Local Authority, colleagues. We are very proud of the fact that those who visit us routinely say that School is warm and welcoming and that pupils are engaged and enthusiastic. We hope you’ll feel the same when you meet us.
