Headteacher

Loughborough Primary School in Lambeth is seeking to appoint an exceptional headteacher, with a vision for outstanding learning. We always go ‘above and beyond’ for the children and our community and are about to embark on the next phase by joining The Charter Schools Educational Trust (from June 2024).

Our school, at its heart, has a strong moral purpose and desire to achieve social justice for all pupils. We have a pre-school provision for 2-year olds and an on-site Nursery. We are moving to one form of entry. Ofsted noted (March 2023), ‘the school could be judged outstanding now in a graded inspection.’

Our values are:

• Try your best
• Show resilience
• Collaborate
• Respect yourselves and others

Through innovative practice we strive for excellence, enabling pupils to achieve their highest potential. We develop great thinkers who demonstrate curiosity, resilience and embrace challenge, becoming global citizens, fully prepared for life in modern Britain.

Our next headteacher will have an ambitious vision, that puts the Brixton community at the heart of everything, someone equipped with the knowledge and experience to foster a culture where our staff and children can continue to thrive. The successful candidate will demonstrate expertise in curriculum and assessment, behaviour management, and organisational leadership. We seek a leader who is not only confident and motivated but also eager to develop our diverse and talented staff through evidence-informed practices and collaboration within the wider Trust. We think this is the perfect first headship or perhaps an opportunity to take on a different context if you are an experienced headteacher.
