Are you looking for a new challenge?

We are looking for a reflective, innovative, creative leader to help shape our future.

Our current Headteacher has offered dedicated and inspirational leadership but is now ready for new challenges. To be our new Headteacher you must be a dynamic leader with high expectations. We want a leader committed to building a culture of high performance, achievement and possibility for all.

You must believe that a school should be a learning community, a place where everyone has the same chance to develop and succeed, where all, regardless of the complexity of their needs or circumstances, should aspire to excellence.

If you are committed to identifying and nurturing the talents of your pupils and colleagues, within a stimulating and creative learning environment we would like to hear from you.

Our school is located in the charming market town of Great Torrington. The town has a real sense of community and is surrounded by acres of common land. There are accessible beaches and rugged moorland close by.

Great Torrington Bluecoat C of E Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff and volunteers to demonstrably share this commitment. This post involves the type of work with children and young people that requires applicants to undertake an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.
