Pennaeth/Headteacher – Tim Newbould

DEPUTY HEADTEACHER / ADDITIONAL LEARNING NEEDS CO-ORDINATOR (ALNCo)

L9 – L 13

Required September 2024

The Governing Body of this happy school wishes to appoint a creative and inspirational deputy to join an experienced and enthusiastic staff in our popular school.  The successful candidate will also be the ALNCo for the school, and the Foundation Phase co-ordinator, so experience as an ALNCo and Foundation Phase lead is essential for this role.  Developing the wellbeing of children and staff is one of our priorities, so you will need experience and strength in this area.   Promoting the Welsh language is another of our priorities, so we are looking for someone who is confident in speaking Welsh, though not necessarily fluent.  Given the level of responsibility, this will be a non-teaching role.

The appointed candidate will

•             be an excellent class teacher, with high expectations

•             have a commitment to develop the potential of all our children

•             have excellent interpersonal, organisational, communication skills and a sense of humour

•             share good practice with colleagues and be a positive role model

•             have a clear vision for school improvement and raising standards

•             have proven curriculum leadership skills

•             have energy and enthusiasm for all areas of school life

•             have the ability to lead, inspire and motivate others and work effectively as a team.

Please read the Person Specification carefully.  Only those applicants who meet all the essential criteria will be shortlisted.
