Assistant Headteacher- Raising Achievement

4 weeks ago


Amble Northumberland, United Kingdom James Calvert Spence College Full time

James Calvert Spence College is an evolving school, currently a 9-18 school as a result of a merger between middle and high schools, but transitioning into an 11-18 secondary school by next September.

Additionally, the planning work for our new build school is almost at an end, with building work anticipated to start later this year and the doors opening in summer 2026.

Following a leadership restructure, we are looking to appoint an inspirational Assistant Headteacher to further improve outcomes at GCSE and A-level. Our last Ofsted (June 2022) rated us as a good school in all aspects – something we are incredibly proud of, and which came about as the result of hard work and honest, supportive communication between every member of the school team.

I’m looking for the right person who can further develop our systems to ensure that expectations of staff, parents and students are uniformly high, so that measurable outcomes continue to improve. Ultimately, our school needs someone who understands data, can hold people to account and who cares passionately about our community.

I’m looking for someone who is an excellent teacher, who has a depth of knowledge and experience around embedding strategies to improve outcomes, and who understands how to bring a community along with them on a journey of transformation, so its expectations are heightened and it is inspired to strive for even more.

I’m looking for a colleague who can work as part of a team and who wants to make a real difference to the lives of our students and staff – they deserve the best, and I’m determined to give them nothing less.

You will be a key part of the school’s senior leadership team and, as such, will be involved in strategic planning and decision making across all phases.It’s an exciting, vibrant and unique place to work. It’s never dull - no two days are the same - but you will smile every day, and you will make a difference.

I hope that, after reading the information on offer and visiting our website at , you feel compelled to apply for the post.To do so, please complete the application form and return it with a letter of application that demonstrates your suitability for this role and how you feel you could benefit JCSC as it moves into its next, exciting phase.

The closing date for applications is Sunday 12 May and we plan to interview Friday 17 May.

If you would like more details, or to have an informal conversation about this opportunity, please don’t hesitate to contact me at nrodgers01@jcsc.co.uk .

Yours sincerely
