We are seeking to appoint an inspirational Assistant Headteacher to join our team at Leverington Primary Academy.

The successful candidate must be an excellent classroom practitioner who can support and challenge all pupils to achieve their full potential. Experience of leadership and raising standards in teaching and learning are essential.

The candidate must be flexible, organised and operational in the day-to-day management of the school in the absence of the Co-Head Teachers. Effective communication and collaboration with the wider senior leadership team is vital.

We are dedicated to high quality professional development and there are opportunities for further progression within the Diamond Learning Partnership Trust. At Leverington Primary Academy, you can expect a
supportive culture within a Trust with very high aspirations. We value our staff and there are many development opportunities within the Partnership.

The Diamond Learning Partnership Trust is a charitable multi-academy trust specialising in the Primary sector. We are building a thriving community of schools that succeed on behalf of their children. The Family of Academies within the Trust currently incorporates three hubs: St Neots, Fenland and Royston.

Further benefits include:

• Opportunities to train/work with other academies within the Diamond Learning Partnership Trust to share best practice and resources
• A collaborative approach working alongside two other schools in our ‘mini-hub’
• Teacher Pension Scheme
• A caring, fun and supportive working environment.
• Opportunities for career progression, both within school and across the Trust.
