Headteacher / Executive Headteacher job summary
Headteacher of The Redeemer Church of England Primary and Executive Headteacher of St. Stephen's Church of England Primary School, Tockholes, Lancashire
The Governors invite applications for the post of Headteacher of our outstanding Church of England Primary School.
This is an exciting and unique opportunity for a highly effective, inspirational and outward-facing leader to work with a team of amazing children and motivated staff in both schools. The Redeemer is a two form entry school which moved to its new building in 2006. It has been judged as outstanding by both Ofsted and SIAMS. St. Stephen’s is a village school, less than 10 minutes’ drive away, which caters for a maximum of 70 pupils across all years. With the guidance and leadership of the Redeemer, St Stephen’s has moved from requiring improvement to good by both Ofsted and SIAMS. Each school has a distinctive Christian ethos and vision which is grounded in both the day to day life of the schools and in the improvement plans.
The successful candidate will have:
Substantial experience as a headteacher or deputy headteacher of a primary school.
An active Christian commitment with the ability to sustain and develop the Christian ethos and values of the school.
A proven track record of effective leadership and management of people and a commitment to working in partnership with governors, staff, parents, other schools and the local community.
A clear vision for an innovative, progressive, forward-thinking and outward-facing school, together with the ability to communicate that vision to all people.
The capacity to provide inspirational, enthusiastic and innovative educational leadership that is demonstrated through improved outcomes for children.
A caring and considerate attitude towards children which recognises each child as an individual and encourages them to reach their full potential.
