Headteacher

Hackney New School Trust is looking for an outstanding headteacher for our community primary school that will open in September 2015 in London.

This is a unique opportunity to develop and lead a new school as part of the Hackney New School Trust. You'll set the ethos, expectations and standards right from the very start. Our ideal candidate will be a talented and committed teacher with outstanding senior leadership experience and strong academic qualifications. Working alongside the board of governors, and engaging with local parents, you will use your expertise to build your own team and create a new, first-rate school for the area.

Our vision for Hackney New Primary School is to provide students with access to the widest range of opportunities in life by fostering academic excellence and instilling self-belief, intellectual curiosity and responsibility towards others in society.

At HNPS children will learn in smaller classes with a longer school day to help everyone to excel. Alongside English and mathematics, music will be at the heart of the school.
