The trust, on behalf of Ash Grove School, are seeking to appoint an inspiring, compassionate and dedicated Headteacher who is eager to make a meaningful impact while fostering strong, supportive connections with staff, pupils, families, and the wider community.

Ash Grove has recently transferred into our trust, having previously been called Spring Lane. The school is on a significant journey of improvement, heavily supported by the trust. This is an exciting opportunity for the right individual to oversee a transformation project. There is also significant opportunity for the right leader to grow and expand with the school overtime. The school will move into brand new facilities which will be transformational for the community and there is also an opportunity to expand the schools offer to make a wider difference. The trust is also set to open a brand new SEMH school in 2027 and we anticipate lots of partnership working which will present opportunities for both schools. 

The ideal candidate will be a dedicated leader with a passionate commitment to supporting students who benefit from alternative approaches to mainstream education. The successful candidate will have the ability to create and champion broader curriculum pathways, provide tailored SEMH support, and offer children a fresh start on their educational journey. Whoever is successful will be given all the support and resources need to create an exceptional school. This a project which is close to our hearts as its about making a difference to young people who need it the most. 

As Headteacher you will play a vital role in raising teaching and learning standards within a school culture where everyone is truly valued, supported, and united in working towards positive change through an inclusive and compassionate approach to education. 

If you want to make a difference to young people and join a trust at an exciting part of its journey, we would love to hear from you.
