    St Mary and St Peter Catholic Primary School and St Mary’s Catholic Primary School are two vibrant Roman Catholic Primary Schools situated in Gorleston and Lowestoft respectively on the east coast of Norfolk and Suffolk. They are within easy travelling distance from each other and share many characteristics, such as size, ethos, a close working relationship and similarity in both opportunity and challenges. Due to the promotion of the current postholder we are excited to appoint a new Executive Headteacher across the two schools. Staff, parent and Governors are very proud of our two schools and they are welcoming and delightful places to grow and learn.

    We are committed to the belief that everyone is treated with fairness, justice, compassion, inclusiveness, love, respect and ensure all pupils have the opportunity for a quality education in a spiritual environment.

    Both schools were founding members in May 2016 of the St John the Baptist Catholic Multi Academy Trust and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape both the schools and contribute to the future success of the Trust. Our schools have separate Local Governing Bodies but have long established joint working and aspire to share more leadership, staffing, CPD and vision to be the best possible environments for learning, growth and spiritual development

    This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wishes to develop their career in a senior post not often available at Primary level as the successful candidate will be joining a strong Multi Academy Trust committed to staff development and stable schools which have  great potential to become even stronger in the near future.

    The Directors and LGB are seeking to appoint a well-qualified, ethos driven and capable senior leader to take the helm of our happy and community centred schools. The successful candidate will have a proven track record of success as a senior leader and will commit themselves to further improving Teaching and Learning within both schools. We welcome applications from exceptional candidates at the cusp of school Leadership, as well as strong established leaders.

    Applications are sought from practising Catholics who will develop further our Catholic ethos.

    For an application form and further details please visit our Trust website – www.stjohnthebaptist-cmat.org.uk or visit either schools’ website.
