The Federation’s vision is to ‘inspire and empower students through collaborative working and to promote their holistic development.” Our values statement is “We R.I.S.E Together – Respect, Inspire, Support, Empower”.
The Board of Governors is seeking to appoint an inspirational Assistant Headteacher to join our committed staff team and to work in collaboration with the Executive Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team.
We are rightly proud of our Federation and each setting. We’re looking for the right person to lead a vibrant, highly committed and caring community where children are at the very heart of all that we do. Our recent Ofsted inspection (June 2024) found that:
• “Leaders have high expectations for all pupils. Pupils rise to these expectations and achieve well.”

• “The school has designed a highly ambitious curriculum for all pupils. At the heart of this curriculum, is a focus on supporting pupils’ communication, independence and physical needs.”
• “Behaviour and attitudes to learning are exemplary. Staff know the needs of individual pupils and learning environments are purposefully designed to support pupils’ behaviour and sensory needs.”
Our students have told us the following:
• “I've been here for a long time and the school has helped me be more independent, help others and develop my confidence.”
• “The staff are very friendly and help you an awful lot to learn. I would recommend it for anyone with special needs.”
• “We help each other to get a better education through lots of different activities.”
