7 months ago


Bradford, United Kingdom Co-op Academies Trust Full time

Thank you for showing an interest in our academy and our Trust.  

This is an exciting new role providing exceptional strategic leadership, vision and management for two of our special schools starting in January 2024. Co-op Academy Brierley is a brand new specialist through-school which opens in September 2023 in Leeds. Co-op Academy Southfield is a well established large secondary special school in Bradford. 

Our new academy, Co-op Academy Brierley, will offer an outstanding, inclusive and inspirational learning experience for pupils aged 4-16 with a wide range of complex educational and medical needs. Co-op Academy Southfield is an inspiring place to work and learn. It offers an inclusive learning experience for pupils aged 11-19 with a wide range of complex educational and medical needs. The academy is designated for up to 360 pupils with Severe Learning Difficulties, Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties and Autistic Spectrum Disorder.

As our Executive Headteacher, at Co-op Academy Brierley, you will work with the Headteacher to play a key role in shaping, developing and establishing Co-op Academy Brierley as an outstanding place in which to work and learn. This is a truly unique opportunity to be involved in the operational and strategic planning of the academy and in securing high standards that will drive year on year success. At Co-op Academy Southfield, you will promote a culture of excellence by building leadership capacity, providing specialist expertise and highly visible leadership. 

As part of the Co-op Academies Trust, both schools aim to secure excellence in all aspects of provision. They are part of a group of over thirty schools in the Trust, and two of three special schools in West Yorkshire. All schools in the Trust demonstrate a strong commitment to cooperative values and principles. It is therefore vital that applicants are willing to fully embrace these, embedding them into the learning experiences for pupils and using them to drive up standards further. The Trust is a successful and highly collaborative partnership of schools committed to raising the educational ambitions of the communities it serves.   

Our ideal candidate will contribute to securing and driving forward the educational experience for our pupils and will present as an outward facing professional within each academy, ensuring that the vision and priorities are clearly articulated, shared and translated into agreed objectives and operational plans which permeate all aspects of academy life to promote and sustain school improvement.

We would welcome applications from existing specialist or mainstream Headteachers with a strong track record who want to further their career in special education supported by a highly regarded Trust. If you’re a committed educationalist, steeped in the skills and knowledge of school improvement, with a belief in the power of co-operation to achieve great things – please get in touch with us and consider applying.
