• Be ambitious for themselves and the school;
• Be supportive of the school’s vision to be a Centre of Excellence for the Arts.

For an informal discussion about the role, please contact the Trust by email at hr@ket.education. Alternatively, further details are available on the school website: https://www.willowgrove.school (or through My New Term).
