The role
* Provide confident leadership for a settled school community
* Lead the school through its Ofsted window, which opens in September
* Work within a managed budget plan agreed with the local authority, which is on track
* Full handover from the outgoing headteacher at the start of term
About you
* An early years leader, or a primary leader with genuine early years experience
* Established headteachers and experienced deputies ready to step up to a first headship are both encouraged to apply
* Ofsted experience is a strong advantage given the timing
* General SEND experience is welcome; specialist SEND is covered in-house
* Comfortable leading a small, close-knit setting
