  • Work closely with the Senior Leadership Team to raise attainment and progress
  • Address challenges strategically, collaboratively and holistically to enable each child to meet their full potential
  • Our ideal candidate is highly organised, is a team player and has strong behaviour management skills

The rewards:

  • Become part of a friendly, supportive team who encourage creativity and innovation.
  • We have an approachable and experienced senior leadership team who are willing to support all aspects of your professional development.
  • The benefit of doing a role like this is it feels good and gives you a sense of hard-won achievement and progress. There are also some outstanding rewards – in fact, our salary and benefits package is one of the best in the sector.
