Following the retirement of a successful and long-serving head, the school requires a new head to continue our developmental journey in an exciting and challenging environment.

A committed leader interested in their development, that of the individual children and school team members, challenging all to be the best they can be
Someone that can develop a school ethos which enables everyone to work collaboratively, share knowledge, celebrate success and accept responsibility for outcomes
A leader that understands and values the complexities associated with education in a rich and diverse multi-cultural context
Someone that recognises and utilises collaboration to achieve goals for themselves, their team and the pupils
