Job overview

Deputy Director, Dereham, Norfolk  

Required for September 2014

Deputy Director of Dereham Sixth Form College

L11-15

Following the appointment of the current post holder to the role of Deputy Head at a local High School, The Governors of Northgate High School and Dereham Neatherd High School wish to appoint an experienced, imaginative leader to the post of Deputy Director of Dereham Sixth Form College.

The College has become increasingly successful and popular: in September there will be close to 600 students taking a wide range of Level 3 courses in its immaculate, well-equipped buildings located in their own grounds between the two High Schools. Results are excellent, and the College attracts students from Neatherd, Northgate, Litcham and from a large number of other schools in the area.

The College is also a great example of practical partnership: it is led jointly by the Head teachers of Neatherd and Northgate, to whom the Director of Sixth Form reports, although the day-to-day running of the College is the responsibility of the Director and the Deputy Director.

This is an excellent opportunity for the right person to become part of the leadership team as we embrace new challenges and ensure the continued success of the college.

You are expected to be able to demonstrate:

  • Experience of leadership in either a school or College contex
  • Commitment to inclusive, community education in a Sixth Form setting
  • Exceptional teaching ability, and the capacity to develop that ability in others
  • Understanding of the current issues facing Post-16 education

An appreciation of, and an ability to deal with, the complexities of working in a partnership

Further details are available by contacting Dereham Sixth Form College on 01362 696884, or by email at office@derehamsixthform.norfolk.sch.uk

Closing date: 6 May 2014
Interview dates: 14 and 15 May 2014

Northgate High School and Dereham Neatherd High School are committed to safeguarding and promoting the interests of children and young people. You will be appointed subject to an enhanced DBS check.
