Closing date: 11am on Wednesday 24 th April 2024. A unique opportunity to be part of a ground-breaking school About the role: We are seeking an exceptional leader, ready to join the leadership team in our high-performing school and to contribute to showing what education can achieve. Whilst we recognise this role might be something of a jump for a current middle leader, we are not necessarily looking for someone who has lots of experience, we are looking for a leader who is 100% aligned to King Solomon Academy's values, mission and approach. Our ideal candidate will have: Experience of leading, coaching and managing staff Experience of leading a high achieving team within a complex school environment Experience of raising attainment in a challenging classroom environment Evidence of continually improving the behaviour and culture of groups of pupils View the full job description and person specification here . About our school: King Solomon Academy is a genuine all-through school, with our pupils staying with us from nursery to sixth form across two sites, ten minutes-walk apart.

This all starts in our primary school, where our pupils develop, and grow a love of learning. We have a strong track-record as a school in making a significant impact on our pupils' lives.

Benefits of working for King Solomon Academy: We believe in aiming high, working together, being kind and leading the way. Through weekly individual coaching, year group intellectual preparation time and whole school PD, we invest in your growth and development as a teacher to ensure you can excel in creating the best possible climate for learning for our pupils to thrive in.
