What skills and experience we're looking for

Located in Bracknell, St Michael’s prides itself on its welcoming, family atmosphere. Rooted in our Christian foundations, we are inclusive of people of all faiths and worldviews. We pride ourselves on understanding our pupils’ individual needs and supporting these for the benefit of all.

‘Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities benefit strongly from the support the school offers.’(OFSTED, October 2024)

After a period of change, the last three years have brought stability, a wonderful staff team and a clear direction to the school. Recently rated ‘Good’ in all areas under the OFSTED framework, the school has a strong foundation for exciting growth.

‘Leaders and Governors…have created an open culture in which staff and parents are engaged in the school’s development.’(OFSTED, October 2024)

With an experienced leadership team and dedicated staff, the next headteacher will be able to build on this success, bringing inspirational and strategic leadership.
