The successful candidate will:

- Be an exemplary classroom practitioner with proven curriculum leadership skills

- Have a strong understanding of curriculum developments in Wales

- Be innovative, creative and a strategic thinker, able to turn ideas and opportunities into successful practice.

- Have strong leadership qualities and significant management experience

- Have excellent communication, interpersonal and organisational skills

- Have the ability to motivate, inspire and generate enthusiasm in a team environment

- Have strong experience of managing change

- Have a flexible and positive approach to challenge and change

- Have a strong professional development record and have aspirations for leadership

- Be happy to commit to the wider life of the school

- Be positive and have a good sense of humour

- Have the skills necessary to be able to energise, motivate and lead others to reach the highest possible standards.

This is a key role within the school and we would therefore encourage any prospective applicants to arrange a visit to the school to meet with the Head Teacher and current Deputy.

Prospective applicants are invited to contact the school directly by telephone (01633 259563) or email (stjulians.primary@newportschools.wales) to arrange a visit.
