Due to the promotion of our current Deputy Head Teacher to Headship, Mabel Prichard school is able to offer this exciting new role.

Through our strong caring ethos, we support students to respect their whole community, regardless of background, race, gender, faith and disability and to celebrate diversity, so they are able to develop skills of empathy and tolerance in their life ahead.
If you have two or more years of SEND senior leadership experience, a proven track record of building and leading teams and are committed to ensuring the very best for all learners, we would love to hear from you.
