We are looking for someone who leads with clarity, conviction and a strong sense of purpose.
This role offers a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact on more than 19,000 students, spanning early years to post-16 provision, by championing excellence in teaching and learning and strong academic outcomes for all. You will drive a bold vision for inclusive, equitable and aspirational education, creating a cohesive educational journey where every child, at every stage of their education, is supported to thrive. By reducing barriers to learning, including those faced by children experiencing disadvantage, and advancing social mobility, you will ensure each learner is empowered to grow, learn and flourish, reaching their full potential at every stage.
Academic achievement remains essential for all. However, this role is about unlocking potential and shaping ambitious futures rooted in aspiration across every phase of learning. A Trust-wide strategy, enriched by personal development, character growth and meaningful experiences, will support every child and young person, in every stage of their education through to their transition to post-16 destinations.
In doing so, they will be equipped to contribute to society with confidence, integrity and purpose. We seek a leader who appreciates the distinct identity of each school while advancing our shared vision of ‘One GLF’. If you value collaboration, coherence and continuous improvement, and you embody the GLF values of Respect, Integrity, Kindness and Inclusivity, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

• Honours degree or equivalent
• Qualified Teacher Status
• Commitment to ongoing professional development
• Proven senior leadership across diverse school settings with a track record of raising standards.
• Strategic thinker with the ability to deliver an ambitious, inclusive educational vision.
• Deep expertise in curriculum, pedagogy, assessment, and whole-phase education (EYFS to post-16).
• Strong understanding of national education policy, including SEND and safeguarding.
• Skilled in data-driven improvement, stakeholder engagement, and leading systemic change.
• Values-led leader who builds high-trust relationships and champions equity and social justice.
