Assistant Principal

If you share our values, join our family.

Do you want to work in a good school where leadership is outstanding at every level?

Located in the attractive village of Newbold in Derbyshire, Outwood Academy Newbold is a school with a clear and persuasive ethos. We believe that all children can achieve their full potential, and our staff work hard to bring out the best in each and every student. 

Our diverse curriculum has something for everyone, with extra guidance for those requiring additional support, and we do whatever it takes to help young people develop a sense of responsibility – towards themselves, each other, their community and the wider world. If you share our worldview, you can join us in transforming futures.

As the highest performing Family of Schools in the North of England, Outwood Grange Academies Trust is transforming the futures of countless young people. We are seeking applications from outstanding applicants with integrity, imagination and energy for this rewarding role. 

Outwood Academy Newbold places students at the centre of everything it does, with a focus on creating a culture of success, a positive climate for learning, and increased student attainment, achievement and social and emotional development. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for enthusiastic, driven professionals to join our Family of Schools. An excellent knowledge and understanding of your subject is essential and a sociology background would be beneficial. 

Most of all, you must possess the skills and determination to make a significant difference to the lives of our students and share our single goal of ‘students first’. 

The Outwood Grange Family of Schools offers: 

• The opportunity to work and progress across the Family of Schools. 
• The chance to apply for leadership roles in the Deeps working across the whole Academy. 
• A full and detailed programme of support and development for NQTs. 
• A further comprehensive programme of professional development is provided through the Outwood Institute of Education (formerly the teaching school).

We believe that all teaching and support staff posts within our Family of Schools are key posts in terms of supporting student success and achievement across a broad range of subjects and experiences. As such, we are keen to recruit dedicated and ambitious professionals who will add value to our Academy in both academic terms and through involvement in the fabric of learning and success beyond the classroom.
