Claverham Community College is seeking an inspirational and strategic Principal to lead our thriving 11–16 comprehensive school in the historic town of Battle. Following the retirement of our long-serving Principal, this is an exciting opportunity to guide a highly successful, values-driven school into its next chapter.
Recognised as one of East Sussex’s highest-performing schools, Claverham has a strong culture of ambition, inclusion and respect. Our most recent Ofsted visit (April 2024) confirmed we remain ‘Good’, with evidence suggesting the school may be ‘Outstanding’ at a graded inspection. The college benefits from excellent facilities, a distinctive House system, and a vibrant wider campus including Battle Sports Centre and Battle Day Nursery.
We are looking for a leader who can:
Provide ethical, inspiring and visible leadership
Sustain high standards of education, behaviour and wellbeing
Drive continuous improvement and inclusive practice
Strengthen partnerships with parents, community and external agencies
Ensure effective financial and operational management across the campus
You will be a proven senior school leader with a track record of impact, excellent communication skills, resilience, and a deep commitment to success for all.
Why East Sussex?
East Sussex offers outstanding quality of life, from the High Weald AONB to the Sussex Heritage Coast, excellent links to London and the south coast, and a vibrant cultural and educational landscape. For the right leader, this is an exceptional professional and personal opportunity.
Safeguarding:
The College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff to share this commitment. This post is subject to an enhanced DBS check.
How to Apply:
