We are proud of our happy & well behaved pupils. We have a highly skilled and committed staff team whose well-being is prioritised. Our aim is for all of our children to gain independence and achieve well through an adventure in learning and develop the CLIMB values by the time they leave us in year 6. Our focus is that every child and their family will look back and recall their time at Greenmount, as a time of achievement and hard work but also of fun and friendships; a time during which they developed a thirst for knowledge and a passion for learning.

As a leader you will support the Headteacher in shaping and executing the school’s vision and strategic goals. You will lead whole school initiatives to ensure school remains innovative and responsive to all needs of learners. Your excellent communication and interpersonal skills will inspire and motivate the staff and pupils you work with, as well as the wider community.

What We Offer:
