Principal – establish a brand new Academy

Ready for your greatest challenge yet? We need an exceptional leader to open and establish a brand new Academy.

Creating excellence

Oasis Academy Fiveways is a new primary Academy, opening in Croydon in September 2016. With an initial intake of 90 reception children, it will grow to 630 at capacity and offer a happy, inclusive place for local children to learn.

Get us up and running

We need an ambitious and focused leader to bring the academy to life. From pre-opening planning to establishing an exceptional teaching team, you will help to create an outstanding centre of excellence for all.

Make your mark

This is a challenging role that’s perfect for an ambitious and focused leader.  Already an outstanding professional, you’ll have the drive and experience to build strong links with the community and see that the academy is fully subscribed and local school of choice.  You will understand, share and be committed to the Oasis ethos of inclusion, equality, healthy relationships, hope and perseverance.

Expert support

We do not expect you to do this alone. You will enjoy the support and challenge of being part of a family of academies – working alongside leaders in their field, and benefiting from great learning and training opportunities at a local, regional and national level.
