Principal

Ark John Keats Academy seeks to appoint a new Principal who will lead the school through the next stage of its journey. The new Principal will lead a genuine all-through school (from reception to 6th Form), and have oversight of the primary phase, led by the Head of Primary. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Headteacher who seeks a new challenge in a large, all-through school with a solid foundation and lots of potential to build on. This is also a great opportunity for proven Deputy Headteacher, with experience of leading in a large school, who is looking to step into their first headship. The appointed Principal will join Ark John Keats this September (2026), or sooner if possible.
