If suitable, the appointed Vice Principal will be able to join Ark's LEAD (Leadership Exploration and Development) programme. This is our homegrown programme for aspiring principals which combines professional coaching, peer to peer school monitoring visits, cohort training and unique insights into the personal journey of leadership. We warmly welcome and encourage confidential conversations about the role and visits to our school for suitable candidates.
