We aim to develop:

Ambitious, capable learners who are resilient and independent;

Healthy, confident individuals who contribute to a mutually supportive environment;
We are looking for an outstanding leader with the ability to inspire and motivate others in how improved practice on assessment, curriculum and continuing professional development (CPD) can deliver school improvement, aspirational pupil outcomes, and higher staff engagement and well-being.
You will have an excellent understanding of the evidence base and the latest thinking on assessment, curriculum design, and CPD. This knowledge will translate into inspirational practice in schools in partnership with our ambitious team of school leaders.

A track record of securing improved outcomes for all pupils including those eligible for pupil premium and pupils with special educational needs and disability through your school improvement work is a given.

You will look forward to assuming some responsibility and accountability for shaping, communicating, and delivering the Trust's strategic priorities on shared assessment and curriculum practice, developing professional learning communities and CPD that impacts performance and staff progression.

You will have experience of delivering these using well-developed leadership and team-working skills.

This is a stimulating and rewarding opportunity to use your expertise to drive the strategic direction of the Trust, working closely with senior leaders and teachers, and to develop thinking, improve practice and demonstrate the impact that should be shared inside and outside of the Trust.

A full list of responsibilities is detailed in the job description and person specification.
