Lanchester E.P. School is a dynamic, progressive and expanding school aiming to achieve the highest possible pastoral and academic standards within the context of a caring and supportive school community. Our Christian Values form a central part of our school’s culture and ethos. We are a lively and vibrant school at the heart of the community.

This position has been created due to the promotion of a Senior Leader and our continually growing school. The Governing Body seek to appoint an ambitious, highly motivated and enthusiastic Assistant Head Teacher to help lead and be part of a committed staff team. Our school was recently extended with two new additional classrooms, a Nursery extension and a new outdoor Early Years area. This is due to our ever-increasing number on roll.

We are looking for an Assistant Head Teacher who will:
• Be passionate about making a difference to the lives of children and families in our school
• Have excellent leadership skills and experience
• Have the ability to inspire others through close teamwork and leadership
• Work closely with the Senior Leadership Team to continue the school improvement journey
• Be ambitious for all our children with the highest expectations in teaching, learning, behaviour and attitudes
• Have excellent skills and knowledge of using a wide range of technology in the classroom
• Lead innovation and originality in creating learning opportunities and know how to negotiate the changing educational landscape, keeping us at the cutting edge
• Be an outstanding practitioner who is able to promote and share exemplary teaching and learning practice
• Can support the Christian ethos and help to develop the Christian distinctiveness of us as a Church of England Controlled Primary School
• Have boundless energy, resilience, ideas and very importantly, a good sense of humour

Applicants will need to provide leadership of a high quality in the academic, pastoral and management fields and be able to show evidence of the successful implementation of change.

Visits to the school have been arranged for Wednesday 12th February at 4 pm, Thursday 13th February at 4pm and Tuesday 25th February at 2.30 pm. Please phone the school to book a place on any of these visits.
