We are proud to lead Dunraven, a 4-18, All Through School, one of the 5 schools which form the Dunraven Educational Trust. This structure offers our children - and their families - a unique educational opportunity as well as the chance for the school to create an exciting and enriched learning experience for all its students. Our primary team are very excited to be working with our children and look forward to seeing them develop and grow as learners. In our Secondary phase, we will continue to work hard to ensure that we build successfully on those excellent foundations all the way to A level and the life beyond school. 

A great place to work. The visit of OFSTED in March 2023 judged Dunraven as ‘good’ with outstanding features Such an outcome is the result of the continued hard work of our staff and students – supported by their families – over time.

Headteachers to add reasons why their school is a great place to work (include the advantage of being within a larger Trust, strong leadership, CPD, shared expertise, wellbeing initiatives (EAP, cycle to work), celebration of events etc).

Dunraven is a happy and enjoyable place to work. Staff benefit from a range of wellbeing activities ranging from musical events to our employee assistance programme. Most importantly they benefit from joining our brilliant staff team: longevity of service (an increasing rarity in schools) is a distinctive feature of the Dunraven staff body who are committed to ‘Excellence for All’ our young people.

Staff development and professional development is a strength of the school: over the last 15 years Dunraven has contributed multiple Headteachers to the school system and the shared expertise of the team is considerable. Leaders at all levels bring experience and consistency to the school.

We are also part of a larger family of schools - the Dunraven Educational Trust - including Rosendale and the Elmgreen Schools. Being part of something larger improves what we can provide for ourselves and for others. We are asked to provide support to other schools both across London and further afield. This tells you that others look at what we do and want us to share it with them.

If you are successful in your application, you will join a staff who are hard working, committed, positive in outlook and dedicated to the achievement of our students. We offer a supportive and collegiate professional environment in which you can grow as an effective teacher.
