We’re looking for a leader who could work anywhere - but chooses to work at Birch Wood.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to join our thriving, inclusive school as an Assistant Headteacher.
This isn’t a role about titles or ticking boxes. It’s about impact.

@beckyfrancis.bsky.social 's keynote was the highlight of the conference.
A seemingly sensible mix of what's worked well (knowledge) with a reframing of the National Curriculum which provides implicit permission for schools to offer a wider breadth of experiences that allows all pupils to flourish
Pupils might not be in, but work still continues in school during half term.
We took delivery of a 2nd pod this morning. I am very pleased with how it looks and can't wait to start using it.

I'm off to Spain tomorrow and I've got my holiday reading sorted.
A collection of book chapters and articles ready to inform the literature review for my CoRS paper.
It might be hard for others to comprehend, but it is a real treat to have time to read!

One of my favorite moments from Nobel Prize history:
The Nobel Committee couldn’t reach Stanford professor Paul Milgrom to let him know that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics, so his fellow winner, Robert Wilson, went over to his house in the middle of the night to wake him up!
Fact:
If you even show one iota of resemblance to another teacher at your school, kids automatically assume you’re related.
