Based on our core values of Compassion, Friendship, Koinonia and Trust, we aim to provide an environment for all members of our school community where positive attitudes to learning and creativity are promoted and valued within the context of Christian belief and practice. The school is reflective of a small, community-based, village school, which has a family feel in a welcoming environment.

The Christian ethos at St. Mary’s is of central importance to our stakeholders and we are seeking a Headteacher who will ensure these values are effectively promoted and upheld.

Our location benefits from excellent connectivity with easy access to the A64 and A1(M), as well as excellent mainline rail connections from nearby York.

We also form part of both the South Bank Cluster and Small Schools Cluster. In addition, we are active in the community and benefit from good relationships with parents, the local authority, the Diocese of York and our local church.

As an effective leader and communicator, your role will be to inspire and influence children, staff and stakeholders while developing and promoting our Christian values.
