Join Our Team as Deputy Head across the Lion Academy Trust (Wellingborough Hub)

Are you ready to embark on an exciting journey in education?

About Us:

At the Lion Academy Trust, we're not just shaping young minds; we're nurturing future leaders, innovators, and changemakers. Our commitment to excellence and inclusivity drives everything we do, and now, due to the expansion of our Trust, we're seeking a passionate and dynamic individual to join us in a unique and newly created role as a Deputy Head who will work across all of our primary schools in the Wellingborough Hub.

What We're Looking For:

Above all, we're searching for someone with the right attitude and disposition - someone who is relentless in their pursuit of excellence and unwavering in their commitment to providing the very best educational offer for our students. Under the guidance of our Executive Principal, you'll add capacity to our leadership teams, leading and/or supporting on various aspects of school improvement, including CPD, teacher and middle leaders development, behaviour, attendance, and safeguarding.

Your Role:

This role will be as dynamic and diverse as our Trust itself. From spearheading professional development initiatives to driving improvements in behaviour and attendance, you'll be at the forefront of shaping our schools' success. Don't worry if you don't have direct experience in all areas of school leadership - we'll provide you with high-quality training and guidance through a comprehensive induction program.

Why Join Us?

  • Make an Impact: Your work will directly impact the lives of children and families in the Wellingborough community.

  • Professional Growth: We're committed to your development and offer opportunities for career advancement within our Trust all the way through to Headship.

Ready to Join Us?

If you're ready to take the next step in your career or just want to find a bit more information about this bespoke and unique role, then contact Executive Principal Mr Nicky Kingsnorth on [phone removed] for a private and confidential chat.

Join us on this journey to excellence - together, we can empower every child to reach their full potential!
