Langdon Academy

Vice Principal – Secondary Phase

Required for September 2024

Salary –Leadership Scale (Inner London) – Starting from L24 (£92,006)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an outstanding, inspirational leader to join our thriving and successful Trust as Vice Principal. We are looking for someone who is dynamic and has the gravitas and experience to help deliver the school's strategic vision.

We have made substantial improvements in outcomes across the school and in our secondary phase, progress 8, attainment 8 and the average points score for the English Baccalaureate are consistently above the national average. However, we are not complacent and there is still room for further improvement; there is no glass ceiling for what our students can achieve. Our success is built on high aspirations and the positive relationships between students, parents and the staff at Langdon.

You will need to have an impressive track record as a senior leader and can demonstrate substantial, sustained improvement at your current school. You will need to have the ability to implement change when required and to be a skilled and strategic leader with the credibility to deliver outstanding outcomes for our students whilst supporting and nurturing our staff.

You will need to share our ambition and ethos to give our students life changing education that brings greater opportunities when they leave the school.

The role demands someone who has excellent emotional intelligence, is measured in their approach and understands the importance of engaging with all stakeholders. This role is not for the faint hearted and you will need to demonstrate resilience, but the rewards will be fulfilling, seeing young people develop and reach their potential.

If you share our vision and ambition to take a leading role in shaping the future direction of our school and changing the lives for our school community, then we would love to hear from you.

About Langdon Academy

Langdon Academy is a mixed, non-denominational all-through academy school for three to 16-year-olds located in East Ham in the east London borough of Newham. It has capacity for just over 2,400 pupils.

The school is part of the Brampton Manor Trust, a multi-academy trust which also runs Brampton Manor Academy. Langdon Academy (previously Langdon School) joined the trust in 2014.

The school was originally three separate institutions, built in 1953. In 1972, these schools - Burges Manor, Thomas Lethaby and East Ham Grammar School - were combined to form Langdon School, a mixed comprehensive that would later become Langdon Academy.
