A supporting / personal statement (containing blood, sweat and tears!) for the post of Headteacher.
This supporting statement, of over 3000 words, ensured that I was shortlisted. I was subsequently appointed as Headteacher in a 2-form state primary.
I have removed specific names and replaced with XXX.
There is copy write on the document. Please do not simply lift statements. The purpose of the document is to support your understanding of how to write a supporting statement, including the language to use and how to show your impact as a leader. It also shows how you can structure a supporting statement, using the headings provided in the person specification. I prefer this layout style myself and feel that it shows that you are organised, as well as, making the shortlisting process easier for governors/trustees.
