About this role

From September, a new senior leadership structure will be in place comprising a Headteacher, three Deputy Headteachers and two Assistant Headteachers already in post. Specific responsibilities for this role will be agreed with the Headteacher, allowing flexibility to build on the successful candidate's strengths and experience. This role offers both professional challenge and significant opportunity. It would suit an existing Deputy Headteacher seeking to broaden their experience ahead of headship, or an experienced Assistant Headteacher ready to take on their first Deputy Headteacher role. At the same time, this secondment provides valuable experience of working within a Catholic Multi Academy Trust and the collaboration, support and professional networks that this brings. The post is offered full time for one academic year to allow full immersion withinthe school whilst enabling the successful candidate's "home" school to plan for succession and capacity building. The position is available either as a secondment or fixed-term contract. For secondment arrangements, the successful candidate will remain employed by their current employer and continuous service will be preserved. The Trust will cover all employer costs and salary enhancement will be available. For an informal conversation with Clare McKenna (Headteacher), please contact L.Worthington@seaca.pfcmat.org We would strongly encourage visits to the school, subject to the endorsement of your Headteacher.
