About the role
We are expanding to a third site in Hollingdean, due to open to KS3 and KS4 students in September 2023. This site will meet the needs of a different cohort of students to our existing pupils, but will still be a part of Hill Park’s values and community. These students will not have a learning disability but will have an EHCP and a diagnosis of autism.
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Executive Head Teacher and the Deputy Heads leading the Primary and Secondary sites, in growing and strengthening the Senior Leadership Team, ensuring we continue to evolve our outstanding practice to a wider range of need.
