We have a strong ethos based around success, humility and respect and are looking to appoint a reflective and engaging candidate who will help to further develop the positive culture for both staff and students.
In 2017, our school was inspected by Ofsted for the first time since opening and we were graded ‘Outstanding’ in every category by the inspection team. This further highlights the hugely talented team we have in our school working in partnership with ambitious students and their families.

We offer:
• Excellent opportunities for professional development, with high ambitions for all
