• Support and develop the wellbeing of all students and staff, promoting a positive school culture.
• Manage and monitor the quality of teaching and learning across both the mainstream secondary provision and SEN.
• Foster positive relationships with students, parents, and external agencies to ensure the best outcomes for all learners.

Person Specification:

• Proven experience in senior leadership within a secondary school setting.
•  
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to lead, motivate, and inspire staff and students.
• A proven track record of successfully improving student outcomes and supporting diverse groups of learners.
• Ability to work collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders, including parents, staff, and external professionals.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving and decision-making in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

Desirable:

• Experience of working with students with complex needs and challenging behaviour.
• Knowledge of safeguarding regulations and best practices.
• Strong understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with running a PRU.

This is an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated leader to have a lasting impact on our school community. If you are a strategic thinker with a passion for improving outcomes for young people, we would love to hear from you.
