Springfield is a popular and high performing 11-16 school, in which ‘leaders are determined to provide a high-quality education for all pupils, regardless of their ability or circumstances’. Ofsted judged the school to be ‘good’, across the board in April 2025.

We are seeking an ambitious, well-qualified and highly motivated leader to join our pastoral team as Head of Achievement. The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in securing excellent outcomes for pupils through strong pastoral leadership, whilst benefiting from a wide range of high-quality CPD and career development opportunities. The ability to teach Science or English would be advantageous, but not essential.

For an informal discussion regarding the post, please telephone Mr Brimacombe (Deputy Headteacher) at the school.
