About this Role

The school, which enjoys beautiful views of the surrounding countryside, serves the local community and beyond by providing the highest quality of education within a context firmly rooted in Christian values. Our core values are Kindness, Endurance and Courage. In addition to strong academic outcomes, with pupils achieving above the national average in all areas, the school is especially proud of its unique Enrichment Programme, which all children from Year 1 onwards enjoy weekly as part of their timetable.

The school is part of Learn Academies Trust, a thriving Multi-Academy Trust, founded in 2016, and now a proud family of 19 Church of England and Community Primary Schools across Leicestershire, including Leicester City. Our Church schools are part of the wider Diocese of Leicester network of 97 schools and academies, giving us access to a strong, collaborative community and shared expertise.

Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We welcome and respect children and families of all faiths and none, ensuring every child feels valued, supported, and able to flourish. We believe in the transformative power of education. Guided by our vision and values, we work in courageous fellowship to pursue our core aims of equity, well-being, and excellence, relentlessly striving to provide the very best opportunities for every learner and every member of staff.

The Trust is well established and respected, and you will be a key part of its future growth, development, innovation, and continuous improvement. We are a community that is committed to professional growth, collaboration, and innovation. This is more than a leadership role - it’s an opportunity to shape futures and make a lasting impact.

Whether you are currently a Deputy Head/Vice Principal or Head of School, ambitious for your first headship, or an experienced Headteacher ready for a new challenge, if you are inspired by the opportunity to lead Church Langton into its next chapter of excellence, we would be delighted to hear from you. You must have a passion for continuous improvement, embracing new ideas to enhance teaching and learning. This will be driven by a clear vision for the school's future and the ability to implement strategic initiatives that deliver tangible results. Importantly, you must be values-led and motivated to make a real difference to the lives of the pupils.
