We are seeking to appoint an Assistant Principal / Director of Learning - Maths at Gospel Oak School who is aligned with our mission to support social justice through exceptional schools, our values and our distinctive culture. You must have a passion for working in challenging circumstances, in an area of high deprivation and be keen to improve the life chances of all the students.

This role offers an excellent career opportunity for a proven, successful middle leader who is ready to progress to a senior leadership role and continue their professional passion for maths. This position will give you the opportunity to expand your experience whilst playing to your strengths and passion for the subject.

We are a rapidly improving school and Ofsted stated that ‘Pupils and staff agree that Gospel Oak School is a school that is transformed. Pupils behave well. It is a calm place, where pupils feel safe. Relationships between staff and pupils are warm. Pupils’ attendance is strong. Pupils welcome the changes to their school. They are proud that they have been a part of that change by meeting the school’s expectations, developing positive attitudes and treating each other with respect.’ (October 2025).

At Gospel Oak, we believe in the transformative power of education and are committed to social justice. Our mission is to ensure that every student, regardless of background or ability, receives an exceptional education. Our core values—Respect, Pride, and Aspiration—are embedded in everything we do.

This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious leader who is ready to make a real impact in a school that values excellence, equity, and professional growth.
