What skills and experience we're looking for

The Governors of Lord Street Nursery School are seeking to appoint an inspirational Head Teacher with passion, vision and excellent leadership skills.

At Lord Street we strive to provide a safe, fun caring environment where children can enjoy learning through play and become confident independent learners enabling them to reach their full potential.

Children are encouraged to be driven by their interests. We nurture and develop this by creating opportunities to stimulate and provoke enquiring minds.

We are eagerly awaiting our latest Ofsted inspection report.

We have an enthusiastic and experienced team who are committed to developing a learning community of children, and families working co-operatively to promote inclusion and high achievement for all.

This is a rare and unique opportunity following the retirement of the current post holder.

You are warmly invited to take the opportunity to visit our school. Please contact us on 01332 349 363 to arrange this. To discover more about our vision and principles please visit www.lordstreet.derby.sch.uk

Commitment to safeguarding

Lord Street Nursery School is fully committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We have rigorous recruitment procedures that are designed to stop unsuitable candidates from being appointed. The post is in regulated activity, and it is an offence to apply for the role if the applicant is barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children. The successful candidate will require enhanced DBS clearance and references, where possible, will be taken before interview. We are committed to equality of opportunity in employment and services.
