We are seeking an experienced, inspirational, and energetic leader of our Science department to join us as we continue to transform education across our town. In September 2021 Twynham School and The Grange School (TGS) federated staffing structures enabling us to launch an ambitious and progressive vision for the education provided by our two schools. As we head into the second year of our journey we are excited to be advertising this unique opportunity to lead and work across two very different schools, serving one community of young people.
In judging TGS to be “good” in all areas in December 2021, Ofsted recognised the efficacy and powerful opportunity provided by our federated approach and you will be joining an organisation that is gathering considerable momentum and has an absolute commitment to providing exceptional opportunities for the young people of Christchurch.
This is a truly exceptional opportunity for a talented colleague.

- Has a proven track-record of improving outcomes for students across a department

- Don’t leave anyone behind
- See the bigger picture
Twynham School and The Grange School can offer you
