Headteacher Recruitment

The recruitment of a suitable headteacher is the single most important task a governing body will undertake. Schools succeed or fail on the effectiveness of their leadership. However, recruiting a headteacher can be a daunting and extremely challenging task.

A governing body will often experience the process only once and will be aware of how much responsibility is involved. Unlike recruitment of other school staff, headteacher recruitment can be a tremendous amount of work, but with the right support can provide the catalyst for a school to make great improvements in its educational provision.
