About This Role

Following the retirement of our Deputy Headteacher, we are seeking an exceptional practising Catholic leader to continue and develop further the hard work and excellent leadership within our team.

This is a unique opportunity to join a warm, inclusive, and welcoming Catholic school community, where the nurture of every child is at the heart of all we do, where our Gospel values are fully embedded in school life and embraced by all within our community. We are looking for a Deputy Headteacher who will lead by example, demonstrating outstanding classroom practice, ambition, and compassion, while promoting a culture of respect, responsibility, and inclusion.

You will work closely with the Headteacher and Governing Body to drive school improvement, using assessment information to lead curriculum development, ensure consistently strong teaching, and promote excellent pupil attendance. The role also includes a teaching responsibility, and therefore requires a leader who is highly visible, leads from the front, and is fully committed to securing the best outcomes for all pupils. This role requires resilience, strategic oversight, and the ability to balance operational leadership with day-to-day support for staff and pupils.
