We actively cultivate determination and perseverance in our students and colleagues, enabling us to secure consistently strong outcomes year on year. It allows us to build confidence within our young people, helping them to persist in the face of setbacks and to enable our students and colleagues to demonstrate adaptability and positivity as core characteristics.

This is an exciting opportunity for a Vice Principal to join us on our journey. We are seeking to appoint an exceptional senior leader with responsibility for behaviour, attendance, safeguarding and student experience. You will play a pivotal role in continuing to drive standards across the academy, shaping a culture where excellence is the norm and every student is empowered to thrive. We are looking for a leader who shares our passion, embodies our values, and is committed to setting the conditions in which both students and staff can flourish.

This is a career-defining opportunity to take on a newly created Vice Principal role, with a clear focus on behaviour, safeguarding, attendance and the wider student experience.

If you are seeking a senior leadership position where you can shape strategic direction alongside an established and successful team that puts young people first, this role offers a unique and exciting challenge.

As Vice Principal at BBG Academy, you will be highly visible and provide strategic oversight across key pastoral systems, building on strong existing practice to ensure consistency, coherence and continued improvement. This is a role with real scope: the successful candidate will help define and develop the strategic layer that strengthens day-to-day operational leadership in behaviour, safeguarding, attendance and student experience.

You will bring clarity of vision and moral purpose, underpinned by a deep commitment to ensuring every student feels safe, supported and able to thrive. You will lead with integrity, resilience and professionalism, embodying the Nolan Principles and working collaboratively with colleagues to secure the very best outcomes for all learners.

Working closely with the Principal and wider leadership team, you will drive a culture of high expectations, ensuring that systems are robust, inclusive and impactful. You will champion a positive and inclusive student experience, where strong relationships, clear routines and effective safeguarding practice underpin a calm, purposeful environment for learning.

The role requires a strategic thinker with a strong track record of impact in pastoral leadership. You will need to demonstrate credibility, emotional intelligence and the ability to influence at all levels, building effective relationships quickly with staff, students, families and external partners.

This is an exceptional opportunity to shape a key leadership portfolio within a forward-thinking Trust, and to make a lasting difference to the lives of young people and their communities.
