Head

Bedstone College

Shropshire

This is a tremendous opportunity to lead a delightful school with great aspirations and a child centred approach. Applicants will have strong communication skills, resilience and must demonstrate a commitment to the School's ethos.

The School prides itself on empowering each pupil to achieve their potential in everything they do. The focus is to prepare pupils to cope with the many and varied challenges in modern society, ready to leave the school as well-rounded individuals. This includes academic, sporting and other extra-curricular activities.

Founded in 1948, the School has an enviable history. Kindness is at the heart of the Bedstone Family – the school motto, “Caritas”, literally translated means charity. The School values tolerance and encourages pupils to be confident enough to respect each other’s opinions and views whilst putting others before themselves. Set among south Shropshire’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Bedstone enjoys over 40 acres of surrounding countryside for its extensive campus of modern buildings and playing fields.

This role presents a wonderful opportunity to lead, motivate and develop the School and its staff whilst maintaining a caring, welcoming, and inclusive learning environment.
