We are seeking to appoint an ambitious and inspirational Assistant Headteacher to help lead our Post 16 provision at Kingsmead School.
This post provides an exciting opportunity for a dynamic and aspirational leader to play a key part in providing strategic and operational support to the Headteacher and Trust Leader with a specific focus on Post 16. This post would suit a colleague who has existing leadership experience or a colleague who is looking to take on their first leadership responsibilities. The successful candidate will work alongside the Headteacher to help shape and embed the Key Stage 5 curriculum.
This post is integral to our school and plays an important role in enhancing the opportunities for young people. This post would suit an experienced middle or senior leader who is passionate about maximizing the potential of pupils and who has experience working with children with a range of special educational needs and disabilities.
As an Assistant Headteacher you will need to share our commitment and vision and play an integral part of the school’s strategic development. Our collection of schools is not only changing but also growing. As a result, this could lead to further progression opportunities within our schools over time as well as extensive CPD opportunities.
The successful candidate will be able to engage and enthuse all members of the school community and work cooperatively within a diverse team of professionals from across the education and wider care landscape. Our mantra “we never give up” underpins our approach to working with pupils and guides and underpins our values. This is a fundamental part of Kingsmead School vision so it is important that the successful candidate can fully embrace and embody this philosophy.
