HEADTEACHER

Governors are now seeking to appoint an inspirational Headteacher with the vision, skills, qualities and dynamism to lead our School in the next stage of its development.  The post offers a great opportunity to build on our existing strengths and to maintain the excellent provision given to our community, following the retirement of the Headteacher.
