Our Academy is an inclusive school sitting in the beautiful town of Kington in Herefordshire within the Welsh Borders.  The current Ofsted judgement of Good was achieved in January 2018.

Our warm, friendly environment provides students of all backgrounds and abilities with the opportunity to reach their full potential. Students are supported by enthusiastic and hardworking staff who want the very best for them. The wide range of extracurricular activities that we provide are an important strength of the school.

Our community is proud of our school and have high expectations for its future.

We wish to appoint a leader who shares our passion to build on the progress made to date and who will develop the strengths of our school by leading, motivating and supporting students, staff and the wider school community. 

The successful candidate will have:

• A track record of success as a senior leader in a secondary school;
• A clear strategic vision and drive to fulfil our school’s potential;
• The skills to embed and promote the school’s community ethos;
• A commitment to ensuring high quality teaching and learning for all;
