Headteacher

Following the forthcoming retirement of our current Headteacher, the Governors of Lancaster Road Primary School are seeking an inspirational, committed and ambitious leader to lead our school into its next chapter.
Lancaster Road is an established and valued part of the Morecambe community. We are proud of our dedicated staff, our children and the values of Respect, Resilience and Responsibility which underpin everything we do. We are looking for a Headteacher who will build on our existing strengths, bring fresh vision and provide the leadership and direction to ensure every child has the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

• A dedicated staff team committed to providing the best possible experiences and opportunities for our children.
• A school with a strong identity and established values at the heart of its community.
• An active and committed Governing Body, keen to work in partnership with our new Headteacher.
• The opportunity to lead the next stage of our development as we continue our planned transition back to two-form entry.

We are looking for someone who will:
• Provide inspirational, visible and inclusive leadership, putting children at the heart of every decision.
• Drive improvements in teaching, learning, achievement and attendance, with high expectations for all.
• Inspire, motivate and develop staff, creating a positive culture where everyone can succeed.
• Build strong relationships with parents, governors and the wider community.
• Lead with ambition, integrity and compassion, embracing our values and shaping a clear vision for the future.

This is an exciting opportunity to make a lasting difference to the lives of our children and the future of Lancaster Road.
