Deputy Headteacher - Academic/Curriculum

Neston High School seeks to appoint an outstanding professional to join
us as Deputy Headteacher from September 2026.

The post holder will also have oversight and responsibility for the strategy of the Academic areas across the school. There will be a focus on progress, curriculum, teaching and learning, data handling and sixth form.

The person appointed will be an excellent teacher and communicator, able to inspire confidence in all stakeholders, and motivate learners to achieve the highest outcomes. You will be a very effective leader who is able to think strategically and deliver good outcomes.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Senior Leader with a proven track record to further develop their career and to demonstrate they are able to take on the responsibilities and demands of a high-profile role successfully in a large secondary school. The current leadership team are committed to the incremental improvement of the school. We are a strong team, both in terms of experience and abilities. We are looking for people who will bring more divergent thinking to the team whilst being a team player. This is really important as the strength of our work is our ability to share ideas and then agree a way forward.
