Welcome

Dear potential candidate,

Thank you for your interest in SandymoorSchool.

Sandymoor School will open its doors to students in September 2012, providing a fresh approach to education.

I am very aware that as a prospective candidate you are likely to be looking for a school where you can really make a mark and shape outcomes for children and young people. This recruitment microsite will hopefully provide you with all the information you will require to see why this headship is truly unique, creating a step change in education.

Following a successful bid to open a 900 place, 11-18 Free School within our thriving community, we know that our aspirational vision can only be as strong as the leader we appoint to deliver it. Our new Headteacher will work with us to not only drive forward our ideas, but more importantly give fresh and professional impetus to our vision, to create a first class learning environment. Like us, you will be committed to driving up standards by offering all learners an exceptional education through innovative and forward-thinking teaching and learning and carefully structured guidance and support.

You will start with some considerable advantages. Our proposed location will seat the new build school firmly within a booming technology and innovation ‘hub’ which will create not only new housing, but also limitless opportunities to work collaboratively with some of the most exciting industry leaders found globally - forming purposeful partnerships which will considerably enhance the way we can deliver high quality, high tech, learning experiences.

For the right person, this role couldn’t be any more exciting; we are on a path to create one of the most high profile Free School projects nationally. The job will be challenging yet rewarding, in a role that will see you grow in line with the new school.

Please read on for more information or call Phil Watt at Navigate for an informal, confidential discussion on 0844 8005300.

Kind regards,

Richard Eastburn,

Chair of Steering Group
