Assistant Headteacher

Assistant Headteacher - Inclusion and SEND

Dear Applicant,

Come and join our team

Thank you for your interest and taking the time to find out about this exciting opportunity to join the

Leadership and Management Team (LMT) at Stamford Green. This is a brand new post designed to contribute towards the continuing growth and success of our school, where all pupils feel valued and supported

Stamford Green is three form entry primary school and nursery and we are looking for a collaborative, driven and ambitious leader. Can you see yourself joining a dynamic, supportive and determined leadership team who embrace the school’s motto ‘Working together to be the best we can’? If so, we have a vacancy for an Assistant Headteacher leading on Inclusion and SEND.

You would be joining an experienced and friendly LMT, who take a genuinely collaborative approach to school leadership. Although we all have different roles and responsibilities, we take a deliberate approach to ensure that we do not operate in silos, supporting and championing each other and the rest of the staffing team. In practice this means that aside from your substantive role of Inclusion and SEND leader, you would play a leading role in the day to day smooth running of the school.

Whilst academic excellence is always a focus, it is our dedication to whole-person development that makes our school unique. Our school vision is to be a continually improving learning community for all, where children realise their potential, as such, we are committed to continuing professional development for all members of staff through mentoring, coaching and training. This is because we believe that staff involved in their own development, make the very best role models and create engaging learning opportunities for the children. To support the wellbeing of our staff we provide a considered and thoughtful special leave policy as well as health cover for staff, which provides a range of services including health screening, GP telephone and video consultations, physiotherapy, counselling and private medical operations for certain conditions.

Stamford Green is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. As part of our safer recruitment procedure, shortlisted candidates are required to bring to their interview documents to confirm identity, name, date of birth and address. Online checks will be carried out prior to interview and to facilitate this, shortlisted candidates will be asked to provide details of their online presence. The successful candidate will be required to obtain an up to date DBS enhanced clearance.

I look forward to receiving your application and hope to meet you soon.

Best wishes,

Mrs Louise Druce

Headteacher
