Academy Trust on the hunt for senior leaders committed to ‘making a difference’
North West-based Focus Trust to recruit Executive Principal for Oldham schools
An Academy Trust based in the North West has announced that it is looking to recruit two ‘inspirational and experienced’ leaders to join its team – including one Executive Principal, and one Principal to fulfil roles at schools based in Oldham and Tameside.
Focus Trust – a multi-academy trust based in Greater Manchester, comprising of 15 schools across West Yorkshire, Cheshire and Greater Manchester – are currently advertising for the positions which have a closing date of Monday 16th September with the view of a start date in January 2020.
Speaking of the roles the Trust’s CEO Helen Rowland said it was looking for individuals who were ‘committed to making a positive difference to children’s lives and outcomes’ to join its team as part of its latest recruitment campaign.
The roles in question include an Executive Principal role across Coppice Primary Academy and Roundthorn Academy which are both located in Oldham; as well as a Principal role at Manor Green Primary Academy in Tameside.
Helen Rowland, CEO of the Trust, said: “Since the foundation of the Trust we have worked to develop cultural commitment of ‘collective efficacy’ that has translated into the success of all of our academies, and as such a real onus has been placed on learning and making a difference together.
“All staff uphold a shared commitment to work together on the things that matter to improve outcomes for all, and that includes both the children and the teachers and wider support staff.
“We are looking for school leaders who are as committed to the collective improvement and success of the trust as a whole as we are. In return, we can promise candidates an exciting and innovative place to work; an opportunity to develop; as well as the support of the entire Focus Trust family.”
Focus-Trust is a fifteen-strong multi-academy trust based in the North West, with schools across West Yorkshire, Cheshire and Greater Manchester. It has a strong focus placed on collectively working to ensure the best learning environment for each and every pupil.
The deadline to apply for both roles will close on Monday 16th September 2019. For those who would like more information, please visit https://www.focus-trust.co.uk/careers/vacancies/
