Mercia Learning
Trust is a 2-18+, successful, coherent, and growing partnership of currently six
schools, serving approximately 4500 children and differing communities in the
south and south-west of Sheffield. Our three primary schools feed into our three
secondaries, and we are committed to a locality-based approach to future
partnership and growth.
We have a reputation
for leading very effective and sector leading schools (including transforming
standards in previously under-performing schools and establishing an
exceptional free school). This work is underpinned by the right balance of
school autonomy, a culture of high challenge and support, sharing best practice
and alignment, the support of excellent central teams and strong leadership and
governance.
The Trust is about
to embark on an exciting new phase. As such we wish to appoint a Primary
Improvement Director to:
1.
Enhance our offer of exceptional support and challenge to existing schools
so that they continue to improve.
2.
Work with trust and school leaders to promote our vision and realise all
aspects of our strategy for growth.
3. Provide strategic
and operational support to new partner primary schools as we expand, so they
experience the benefits of working with or in our trust.
