We are seeking an outstanding Headteacher, or an outstanding Deputy Headteacher, who is an innovative, responsible and insightful professional, with the passion, drive, and enthusiasm to build on Eastbrook Academy’s considerable strengths. You will be able to lead, motivate, develop, and inspire a school team of staff and governors who are passionately committed to giving pupils a wide range of real-life and enriching experiences, within a culture of highest expectations.
You will demonstrate a clear understanding of what it takes for a school to retain an ‘Outstanding’ judgement and the competency to lead the school to this outcome.

What the school offers its staff

The cluster is led by the deputy director of education. Being part of that family, you will benefit from the expertise, support and opportunities offered by the largest, primary only, multi-academy trust in the country; you will have the freedom to shape Eastbrook within our guiding principles, to open up opportunities to develop your career; to take care of your wellbeing at work and to enable you to flourish as an individual.
