St James’ School is a successful and dynamic 11 – 16 comprehensive school in the east of Exeter. They are looking for a Headteacher who can match the community’s aspirations and ambitions, best summarised in the words of the Head Girl:

“As our school’s results have improved so much so fast, the next challenge facing our school is to decide where we want to go next. How do you improve a school that is already one of the most improved in the country? I feel that this is a question that any possible future headteacher must be prepared to answer….I feel that anyone considering the job of headteacher at St James must enjoy working with intelligent young adults, and really believe in what they are doing to help the students. A teacher never knows the reaches of their influence and secondary school is one of the most important stages in someone’s life.”

Prospective candidates are welcome to visit the school on the 10 or 13 December – please contact Jill Willis, jill.willis@st-james.devon.sch.uk, to make an appointment.
