St Wilfrid’s C of E Primary School is a highly successful and inclusive school within the Diocese of Manchester.

Due to the promotion of our highly respected, successful and much loved Headteacher, Governors are looking to appoint a Headteacher who is inspirational, enthusiastic and committed to leading our school in the next stage of its development.

Our reputation is strong and the school community supports the vision and Christian ethos of the school.

This is a wonderful opportunity for an aspirational and ambitious school leader, who is dynamic, forward thinking and who can work in partnership with staff, children, senior leaders and governors, to drive the continued and future successes of our school.

Do you have the drive and enthusiasm to lead our school? Our children, staff and governors are seeking a new Headteacher who is committed to continuing to build an exceptional and caring learning environment where all members of the school community can thrive.


We are looking for a strong, dynamic and inspirational leader who has:

  • The desire to remove barriers so that all individuals have the opportunity to flourish personally, academically, professionally and spiritually.
  • A passion for our school, including a genuine enthusiasm and love of children, staff and all that happens at our school, helping us to truly demonstrate our Christian ethos.
  • The vision and dedication to lead our school, with the skills and ability to implement this vision through collaboration with all key members of the school community including Governors, staff, parents, our parish and children, to deliver the highest level of education, achievement and attainment possible for our pupils.
  • A clear understanding of leadership within Christian education.
  • The ability to build upon the existing rich curriculum with high expectations of children’s attainment, achievement and behaviour, supporting every child to develop and reach their own unique, individual potential.
  • A commitment to inclusion; putting the needs of the children first so they are supported in all aspects of their learning journey.
  • A strong, proven track record of raising standards across the key stages and who has the leadership qualities to inspire, challenge and encourage staff to achieve the best outcomes for pupils.
  • Excellent interpersonal, communication and organisational skills with a positive attitude and an ambition to create a good work life balance for all stakeholders in our community.
  • The skills to challenge, empower, and support staff to be the best they can be whilst being committed to their professional development.
  • Integrity for the benefit of all within the school community, and a desire to develop the respectful and inclusive ethos of our school.
  • A passion to sustain the learning culture for all across our school, fostering children’s enjoyment of learning whilst ensuring high levels of achievement.

In return, we can offer:
  • A happy, loving, nurturing, secure environment with a strong Christan ethos built on the teachings of Jesus.
  • Fantastic children who are confident, enthusiastic and who enjoy learning.
  • Strong support from a highly effective and supportive Governing Body who have the children at the heart of every decision they make.
  • An inclusive, highly effective, dynamic senior leadership team.
  • A dedicated, supportive and hard-working staff who are fully committed to achieving the best outcomes for all pupils.
  • Supportive from parents and carers, the rector of All Saints Newton Heath, the parish and the community.
  • A commitment to your wellbeing and professional development.
  • A friendly, caring environment with excellent behaviour.
  • Support for your professional development.
