What skills and experience we're looking for
Headteacher: Cotgrave Church of England Primary School
Are children at the heart of your work? Are you ready to lead an academy to further success? If so, read on. The Directors of The Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham Multi Academy Trust are seeking to appoint a Headteacher to Cotgrave C of E Primary School. If successful, you will be working alongside a committed and enthusiastic governing body and wonderful staff.
Cotgrave C of E Primary School is a very special place. The school serves a local community and benefits from a beautiful village location. There have been several modern additions to the original building and there is great scope for providing very high-quality education.
If this sounds interesting, please book a visit – you will find a very happy school with children who are very keen to learn and love the opportunities that the committed staff provide them with. The opportunity to make a real difference to the children and their life-chances is awaiting the right candidate.
We are looking for someone who can build on the good work of the previous Headteacher and provide children with an exceptionally high-quality educational experience. If this sounds like your next step, you will need to be someone who:
- Locates children at the heart of all their work.
- Inspires colleagues to be the very best that they can be.
- Values, promotes and celebrates our core Christian values in all that they do.
- Provides expertise in primary practice.
- Works with resilience, integrity and courage.
- Brings exceptionally high expectations to all that they do.
What the school offers its staff
You will be supported by a Trust that does things differently: we aren’t corporate - and we don’t impose pedagogical policies. We don’t shift teachers around at short notice and we know that strength lies in the quality of our people. We work together to place the best interests of pupils at the centre of every decision and action. You will join our Senior Leadership Team of Headteachers to move both Cotgrave and the wider Trust forward.
In return for your commitment, we will provide exciting opportunities supported through bespoke CPD, tailored specifically to your needs. You will be directly supported by the academy improvement team and will benefit from the wider support of our expert practitioners. We want you to stay in this Trust and will find opportunities to keep you excited about your work. This is a rare chance to make a huge difference, to join a school at the heart of its community.
