Yet the role is diverse and requires a balanced skill set. You will have strong financial capabilities, with a collaborative and proactive approach to pupil, parent and community relationships. You will successfully create and foster a strong and accountable culture to leadership and learning and find new and innovative ways to build on the existing success of the school.
