Headteacher

Do you have the skills, vision and ability to succeed an outstanding Headteacher who will retire this year - do you have the ability to provide inspirational leadership and further develop an already Outstanding Catholic school?

St Ambrose Barlow R C High School has received two consecutive 'Outstanding' Ofsted reports, two successive Outstanding Section 48 Diocesan Inspections and is a National Teaching School. It has been twice awarded Flagship School for Inclusion Quality Mark and is a National School of Creativity. St Ambrose Barlow is a happy and healthy school with high standards, where children thrive and enjoy their educational experiences both inside and outside the classroom. Members of staff are highly committed to developing the unique potential of each and every child. Inspirational and visionary leadership within the Catholic tradition and ethos will be key to continuing and building upon these remarkable achievements

The Governors of this very successful school are seeking to appoint a highly motivated individual who will thrive in a role that presents continual challenge and significant rewards. We need a warm, visionary practising Catholic leader to continue to inspire our dedicated staff. This is a fantastic time to join us. Our numbers are growing every year, as is our reputation for exceptional academic results.

The school is committed to safer recruitment practice and pre-employment checks will be undertaken before any appointment is confirmed. St Ambrose Barlow is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
