# Headteacher

**An exciting opportunity to lead a warm, ambitious and inclusive school**

The Governing Board of Jubilee Primary School is looking for an inspiring, values-led headteacher to lead our school into its next chapter.

Jubilee is a community primary school in Tulse Hill for children aged 3–11. We have 294 pupils on roll, a thriving nursery and a 72-place resourced provision for pupils with hearing impairment and autism. Our families reflect the rich diversity of south London, and 58% of our pupils are eligible for free school meals. We are proud of our inclusive ethos, a dedicated staff team and children who bring curiosity, energy and kindness to everything they do.

**We are looking for a headteacher who will:**

- set a clear, ambitious vision and bring staff, pupils, families and governors with them
- secure consistently strong teaching and a broad, well-sequenced curriculum from nursery to Year 6
- champion disadvantaged pupils and those with SEND, including our deaf children, so that every child achieves well
- develop and retain a talented staff team, with care for wellbeing and workload
- manage the school’s budget and resources wisely
- be visible and approachable, building strong partnerships with parents, the local community and other Lambeth schools

**What we offer:**

- happy, curious children who are a joy to teach
- a dedicated staff team and a stable senior leadership team
- a supportive, skilled Governing Board committed to your success
- support from Lambeth Council’s school improvement, HR and governance teams
- a structured induction, mentoring or coaching, and investment in your professional development
- a vibrant, well-connected part of south London

**What we are proud of:**

Jubilee is rated Good by Ofsted in every area. In 2025, around 80% of our pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, well above the national average. Every child can learn a musical instrument through our partnership with London Music Masters. We are a UNICEF Rights Respecting School, a School Games Gold Award holder and a partner school of Maths Hub London South West.
