What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking for an Education Director who shares our values, ambitions and commitments to take our trust into the next chapter of its compelling story. The Education Director role makes up part of the trust’s Executive Leadership Team, with responsibility for learners aged 2-19 and in both mainstream and specialised settings. At this time we are particularly interested in candidates whose background includes leadership of mainstream secondary schools.

As a member of the Executive Team, the successful candidate will help to define and lead the trust’s strategic direction, and secure high performance in all aspects of CLF life.

Reporting to the Deputy CEO, the Education Director will line manage Executive Principals, Senior Principals and Principals as well as leaders of key cross-trust areas of provision. The postholder will also be responsible for a range of key pan-trust portfolio priority areas including both strategic development and operational delivery.

Education Directors have a 2-19 role and are responsible for the quality of educational provision across all phases and all types of settings within the trust. Education Directors guide and influence the CLF’s educational philosophy and strategy, securing the trust’s mission and upholding the HEART values.

Other responsibilities include implementing the trust strategy to secure improvement, growth and high performance, and acting at a trust-wide level to ensure the CLF remains effective, efficient and high performing across all areas.
