What skills and experience we're looking for
Low Furness CE Primary is a small village school in a beautiful setting, with strong local links and a supportive community. We celebrated a positive Ofsted inspection in 2025 and look forward to recruiting a new Headteacher to carry forward our vision and further develop our new curriculum.
We are looking for a warm, insightful, communicative leader with a commitment to broad, holistic education. The ideal candidate will combine a collaborative approach with a clear vision of effective curriculum design and assessment. They will bring a love of the outdoors, an inspiring presence in collective worship, and a heartfelt care for the unique potential of every child.
The Christian vision of the school has recently been renewed and this year we have adopted the CUSP curriculum framework, so we are also looking for the head who can bring a calm and stable long term view, adapting our new tools and settling them into the school.
What the school offers its staff
Low Furness is a warm and happy place to work with a strong family feeling. We offer:
• Great children.
• Experienced and enthusiastic staff
• Engaged and thoughtful governors
• Supportive parent group
• Strong Federation links with nearby schools
• A light and airy modern building in good condition
• Excellent grounds
• Generous grant support.
The new head will have good administrative and IT backing, a thorough and supportive handover, and tailored peer-mentor support.
The Furness Peninsula is a great place to live and work, with the Lake District National Park only a few minutes away. There are fells, lakes and beaches on all sides, and we are committed to maintaining a happy work/life balance for the head and all our staff
Commitment to safeguarding
Low Furness CE Primary School is committed to the safeguarding of its pupils and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. An online search will be carried out on shortlisted candidates, as directed in Keeping Children Safe in Education 2023. The successful candidate will be appointed on the completion of an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check in line with the Government’s Safer Recruitment guidelines, and on receipt of professional references.
