Job overview

The governors of Reay Primary School are seeking to appoint an experienced and committed leader to be our headteacher.

Reay is a vibrant, popular, friendly and diverse school which is proud of its creative approach to the primary curriculum. 

The school was judged Outstanding by Ofsted in 2017 but a recent ungraded inspection recommended a further Section 5 inspection. To date this has not happened.

Although there are falling rolls in Lambeth owing to a drop in the population, Reay’s popularity in the local community means that it has so far maintained its roll.

We are looking for a headteacher who:

·      is a strong, experienced leader;

·      understands children and knows how to encourage a love of learning;

·      has uncompromising commitment to high expectations for all pupils, so that they can all achieve their full potential;

·      understands the challenges and joys of leading an inner-city, multicultural school;

·      has excellent communication skills and can lead the whole school community with commitment and enthusiasm;

·      has a sound vision for continuous improvement which can build on Reay’s strengths and take Reay into the next stage of its development;

·      has excellent and extensive teaching experience in the primary sector;

·      has experience of building respectful working relationships with all staff, with

care for their wellbeing;

·      has proven organisational skills and knows how to manage a budget, including making difficult decisions to balance it.

We can offer you:

·      a creative school with a strong community spirit which celebrates its multicultural make up;

·      a supportive governing body; loyal parents and children with a deep affection for the school;

·      unique links with London’s wider creative community – providing amazing opportunities for our children.
