St Alban's Catholic High School
Salary: L20-L24
Following an appointment to Headship, the Governors of St Alban’s are looking to appoint a committed, practising Catholic to the role of Deputy Headteacher from September 2024.
St Alban’s is a Catholic School, part of Our Lady of Walsingham Catholic Multi Academy Trust, with 1050 students on roll, including a vibrant and growing Sixth Form.
