- Showing enthusiasm for raising aspirations and supporting children to achieve so they can be the best that they can be.
- Seeing school as a part of our community and be willing to add to wider school life so that we shine as brightly as we can.
- Supporting the Christian ethos of our school, enabling children to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
- Demonstrating an understanding of school safeguarding requirements.
We can offer:
- A genuine opportunity to make a difference with a supportive school family who have high expectations of themselves and our children.
- Access to high quality professional development opportunities.
- Leadership that are open and honest with a willingness to listen and respond to the needs of their team.

We will also carry out an online search as part of our due diligence for shortlisted candidates.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and expects all its staff to share this commitment.
