What skills and experience we're looking for
Our current Headteacher is retiring at the end of the summer term. We are seeking to recruit an inspirational, dynamic and focused successor who has the vision and skills to build on the school‘s success, at the same time maintaining and developing our high attainment standards and will be innovative and creative in enabling every pupil to achieve their full potential. We expect the Headteacher to be a role model for staff, children and parents and to do this with humour and care for all members of the school community.
We feel that Bacon Garth is very special and offers the opportunity to move the school forward from its Ofsted Good accreditation. If successful, you will be supported by an enthusiastic highly-skilled staff, committed and active governors and responsive parents. Each year group has a link governor and many of them volunteer in the classroom, giving them first-hand knowledge of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and performance within the school. We believe this knowledge allows the governors to work in close partnership with the Headteacher without restricting his or her ability for day-to-day management.
What the school offers its staff
This is a unique and exciting opportunity for an individual with a proven track record of leadership in the primary sector at a school located within a rich and vibrant community.
Bacon Garth is a successful, welcoming and friendly school, where everyone feels valued, with happy children eager to learn. It was judged as ‘good’ by Ofsted in 2024 and has continued to maintain high performance standards.
Due to the current Headteacher retiring, the governing body now seeks an ambitious, inspirational and dynamic leader with the vision, skills and experience to build on the school’s success in all areas. If successful, you will be supported by an enthusiastic highly-skilled staff, committed and active governors and responsive parents
You will be offered a comprehensive two-year induction package.
Commitment to safeguarding
Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment. Our recruitment process follows the keeping children safe in education guidance.
