The posting

Deputy Headteacher - Behaviour and Attendance

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, self-motivated and forward-thinking Deputy Headteacher to join this ambitious and supportive team. The successful candidate will be committed to school improvement with significant experience of whole school leadership. They will be effective in developing strategies which challenge, interest and support all students and will have the drive and determination to contribute to the school’s mission of aiming for brilliance in all we do.

The successful candidate will lead on Behaviour and Attendance and in doing so will play a key role in maintaining and developing our culture of high expectations for all, where every student is supported to become the best they can be. Other responsibilities will be subject to the experience of the successful candidate and the needs of the school. The role is advertised as full-time but requests for a part-time position will be considered.

You will be joining a school that is proudly inclusive with a strong reputation in the local community for really knowing our students and placing relationships and belonging at the heart of our approach to their success. Outcomes at Chipping Sodbury school have improved for 4 consecutive years and we are committed to ensuring every student achieves their full potential.

We aim to inspire every member of our school community to aim for brilliance, fostering an inclusive culture where aspiration, responsibility, respect and integrity enable all to become the very best they can be. We deliver this vision by being committed to having high expectations; of student potential; of student engagement in learning and the school community; of behaviour and treatment of others; and of ourselves as educators, committed to providing the very best, inspirational opportunities for our students.

You will work with a wide variety of vibrant and energetic staff both within the school and across the Athelstan Trust. Staff actively engage in and take responsibility for continuing their own professional learning and regularly lead or are involved in research projects and staff professional learning. This focus on development of staff has led to many taking on additional responsibilities within Chipping Sodbury School or moving on to promotions at other institutions; this is something we really value. As a school, we passionately believe in continual development and are committed to not only developing our students, but all who work within our community. Therefore, you will be supported with your professional development. The Athelstan Trust actively seek to enable school leaders to access engagement in NPQ courses and ‘in house’ course. As an employee of the Athelstan Trust you will also gain access to the National College online portal providing a wealth of online CPD opportunities.

The closing date for applications is Thursday 8th October 2026 at 9.00am. Interviews will be held on 15th & 16th October 2026.

The Athelstan Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check along with standard pre-employment safeguarding checks. As the role includes working with children, it is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Applicants must, therefore, disclose all spent and unspent convictions. References will be sought for shortlisted candidates before interview. Please also be aware that you will be subject to an online check and that you may be questioned about the findings of such a check at your interview.

We are a flexible working employer and we are willing to make any reasonable adjustments you require during your interview so please ask us.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
