We are delighted that you are considering applying for the Assistant Headteacher at St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Dinnington, within the St. Francis Catholic MAT. This is a truly exciting time to be joining St. Francis as a new Catholic Trust of 13 schools, growing to 24 schools in line with the Bishop of Hallam's vision for education.

Trustees have a clear vision which promotes excellence, equality and high expectations for all pupils. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to join a community of leaders working across the Trust in an exciting framework of professional development.



We are seeking a candidate who can work with the Headteacher to protect the long-standing traditions of the school as well as introducing new, innovative strategies to take our school into the next stage of its journey. Alongside the support and community of our Trust leaders, the successful candidate will have a passion for teaching and learning and curriculum design in order to continue to develop our school and prepare our children for the most outstanding futures.
