Headteacher

We are a happy, popular two-form entry school with a Nursery, situated on the edges of Mitcham Common; we are looking for a passionate and committed Headteacher with a track record of raising standards for children of all abilities and improving school effectiveness through visionary leadership.

The school is currently "good" and we are now looking for an energetic individual with a passion for providing high quality teaching and learning, and the personal qualities to empower and develop our team further.

As the new Headteacher, you will have the opportunity to develop a clear vision for the school, and to inspire pupils, staff, parents and governors to carry that vision forward.

At Sherwood, our people are our proudest asset. You will be enthusiastically supported by a hardworking and professional staff team, committed and knowledgeable governors, and children who are proud of their school and keen to learn.

We would positively welcome visits to the school by prospective candidates. Please contact The Sherwood School office on 020 8764 5100 to arrange a visit.
