• Has an aspiration for excellence, nurturing and developing our pupils to reach their full potential
• Is already a successful Headteacher who has proven leadership, management, communication and interpersonal skills to promote effective teamwork.
• Demonstrates and promotes equality and high expectations of achievement and behaviour.
• Can build a relationship of mutual respect with pupils, parents, community, staff and the Governing Body.
