Assistant Headteacher (Curriculum or Inclusion)

“An exciting opportunity for an aspirant school leader to join our evolving leadership team at this well established primary school on the cusp of further expansion.” Your career path and responsibilities will develop as the new leadership takes shape, with natural broadening of roles and responsibilities as we complete our transition from 2 to 3-form entry, offering some unique career progression as the school expands.

A genuine community ethos characterises this large, south London primary and is very evident within classes and demonstrated by good behaviour around the school. Some of our children are second generation pupils demonstrating the loyalty, fondness and high regard our multi-cultural local families hold for Turnham Primary.

Currently judged good, there is the groundwork and potential to improve on this. To support these developments we welcome applications from good primary practioners, with either a curriculum development or inclusion specialism, whose enthusiasm, self-motivation and collaborative work ethic will contribute to our innovative team.

Following recent major refurbishment, our existing facilities are creatively used and the upcoming extension will further enhance what we can offer our pupils; this is an exciting time to be joining our team, where the pace of change is productive.

Advantages include:

• Genuine capacity and potential for career development
• Opportunity to contribute to and shape the new leadership framework
• Well structured curriculum
• Established and growing pupils numbers
• Planned new build offering more exciting learning possibilities
