An Exceptional Opportunity for an Exceptional Leader

We are seeking a highly ambitious and talented leader to join our Senior Leadership Team at a pivotal point in our journey. As we continue to strengthen outcomes, culture and opportunities for every child, we are looking for a leader who wants to make a significant whole-school impact and help shape what comes next. We are looking for someone with the credibility, ambition and expertise to make a significant whole-school contribution.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Leader in our team, you will be a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, contributing strategically to the vision, culture and future success of the school. You will lead a significant whole-school area of responsibility, that can be mapped around your interests and expertise.

Working closely with the Principal and wider Trust leadership team, you will have the opportunity to influence strategy, develop leadership capacity across the school and contribute to the wider success of our Trust.

We are seeking a leader who:

  • Has a strong track record of improving outcomes for pupils
  • Is an exceptional classroom practitioner with credibility among colleagues
  • Can inspire, challenge and develop others through coaching and support
  • Holds the highest expectations of behaviour, attendance and achievement
  • Demonstrates excellent emotional intelligence and relationship-building skills
  • Is committed to inclusion and securing success for every child
  • Thrives in a fast-moving, ambitious environment
  • Values trust, professional autonomy and a culture of high accountability
  • Prefers action over bureaucracy and is driven by impact
  • Can lead meaningful change and innovation rather than simply maintain the status quo
  • Believes that every child deserves an exceptional education and every decision should improve the life chances of young people

Why Join Us?

  • A senior leadership role tailored around your strengths and aspirations.
  • Leadership Scale L14-L18, with flexibility for an exceptional candidate.
  • Opportunities for progression towards Deputy Headship and Headship.
  • Direct access to Trust-wide leadership development and coaching.
  • A collaborative and highly supportive Senior Leadership Team.
  • The opportunity to shape whole-school strategy and improvement.
  • A school where leaders are trusted to lead.
  • The chance to live and work on the beautiful South Devon coast.

What We Offer

We know that exceptional schools are built by exceptional people. As part of our team, you will benefit from:

  • A vibrant and values-driven school community
  • Talented, dedicated and supportive colleagues
  • Trust-wide professional learning and leadership development
  • Bespoke coaching and mentoring
  • Opportunities for career progression across a successful Trust
  • A culture that prioritises staff wellbeing and professional growth
  • The chance to make a lasting difference to the lives of young people

Living Our Values. Transforming Life Chances.

At the heart of everything we do is a simple belief: every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. We are driven by the Thinking Schools Academy Trust values of Child First, Aspire, Challenge and Achieve, and we expect our leaders to do more than understand these values. We expect them to bring them to life every day.

As a member of our Senior Leadership Team, you will place children at the centre of decision-making, inspire excellence in others, embrace challenge as a catalyst for growth and relentlessly pursue the very best outcomes for every pupil. Through your leadership, you will help shape a culture where ambition is encouraged, potential is realised and life chances are transformed.

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.
