Being part of Outwood Academy City Fields is about bringing high-quality opportunities and experiences to our diverse school. We wish to employ someone who can provide meaningful leadership, engagement and help all children, staff and visitors thrive in the areas they work in.

City Fields is a multicultural school in the heart of the Wakefield community. Our school supports the local community and the wealth of opportunities our diverse background brings. Anyone wanting to take on this role should be prepared to challenge themselves to meet the needs of a diverse community.

Ofsted noted that putting ‘students first’ is something that directs and guides’ actions each day. 'Because leaders set such a strong example of their high ambitions for pupils, other staff mirror these aspirations’, ‘Outwood Academy City Fields is a school where leaders want the very best for pupils' in whatever walk of life they engage in. We hope you can join us on our journey.

Applications are welcomed from leaders seeking their first Vice Principal role or from experienced Vice Principals looking for a new challenge. You must have high expectations for all, be an outstanding teacher and be committed to supporting every student to achieve their absolute potential.
