outcomes and positive futures for all of our students. They are bright, well-motivated and a pleasure to work
with, whilst our staff are talented, hard-working and ambitious for themselves and others. Our superb
facilities enable us to provide the very best learning environment and learning experiences for our students
and it is the combination of these factors that leads to the high academic standards and enviable reputation
that _The Collegiate Trust_ is known for. We are very proud of what we do and what we have achieved at
Riddlesdown and, as a World Class School, we hold the highest aspirations for what we will do and achieve
in the future. You might like to watch our Welcome, College VI and Teaching at Our School videos.

As the Principal of the Trust’s host school, you will lead a very large and very successful community and will

education for all. At the same time, you will be forward-thinking and have the necessary qualities to build
on our school’s successes and drive its further improvement.

The person specification identifies the experience, skills and attributes we are seeking, but in short, we are
looking for:

- an inspirational role model who is entirely committed to delivering an exceptional education for all
- a strong and confident public figurehead who will positively and effectively engage with our community
- a strategic and emotionally intelligent leader who enjoys working collaboratively

the most of our small learning communities, whilst maintaining the benefits of being a large school. Our
VALUES underpin the way in which we work and describe our high expectations and our emphasis on positive
relationships across the school. Our motto,
_“Learners of today, Leaders of tomorrow”_, applies as much to
staff as it does to students and it gives an indication of the significance we place on nurturing talent and
leadership. Naturally, there will be high quality support in the role through the CEO, the Executive Team, an
experienced Local Governing Body and a highly skilled Senior Leadership Team.

**Our Approach
We operate a “small schools” model - one school made
up of a number of smaller learning communities, which
we call Colleges, each with their own staff and facilities.
Each College is led by its own Headteacher (who is an
Assistant Principal) and has its own team of
approximately 25 teachers and non-teachers, covering
most curriculum areas.

Students join one of the Colleges in Year 7 and remain
there for five years before transferring to College VI, our
specialist post-16 provision. In addition, the Creative and
Performing Arts (CPA) College delivers specialist
education to students across the Collegiate in Art, Drama, Design Technology, Media, Music and Physical
Education whilst the MacKay College co-ordinates inclusion services to students with additional needs. Small
teams, working with just 400 students each, allow us to provide even better pastoral care to all students, as
well as engage with learners
