vision and daily life. The school offers a thriving learning community, a vibrant, inclusive and spacious
environment with happy and well-behaved children, enthusiastic, hard-working and committed staff.

We are looking for an excellent resilient team player who demonstrates the ability to lead, innovate,
motivate, influence, and inspire through a proactive and collaborative approach. The ideal candidate

times modelling outstanding and inclusive practice. They will have a good understanding of the use

We would welcome applications from candidates who believe they have the right qualities to take
our school forward and building on our strong foundations, further develop school strengths,
ensuring Bridgetown continues to deliver a high-level of provision in years to come. Within your role
as headteacher, you will work closely with a supportive and effective Governing Body, who will both
support and challenge in equal measure, to ensure that the collective vision for the school is
achieved through the daily experiences of those who matter most to us – our pupils.
