Headteacher, St Mary’s Catholic Primary Schools Trust in Croydon

The Governors of St Mary’s Catholic Primary Schools Trust are looking to appoint a new Headteacher for our Junior School.

We are a small Catholic Multi Academy Trust in central Croydon, serving a vibrant, Catholic multi-cultural community.

We are looking for a Headteacher with faith, compassion, ambition, imagination, vision and drive to build on the existing strengths of our school.

The successful candidate will be a committed, practising Catholic who understands what is required to continue to move our Catholic school forward, who measures their own success in the achievements of our pupils and who would relish the challenges that Headship presents.

We want a Headteacher who will inspire their colleagues to maintain the tremendous energy and commitment that they currently show towards the success and wellbeing of our pupils. They will be supported by a skilled, committed, enthusiastic and hardworking staff and Governing Body.

If you feel that you are that person, please contact our school office to arrange a visit.
