Headteacher Opportunity
at Hamilton Lodge School And College

Welcome

I would like to thank you for your interest in the role of Headteacher at Hamilton Lodge School and College.

Hamilton Lodge is a well-established special school, supporting the education of Deaf children and young people for 80 years. Over the years, Deaf education has evolved and we have recently restructured our provision to meet the future demands of Deaf education. We are looking for a Head Teacher to lead us on the next steps of this exciting journey. We have a team of experienced and enthusiastic education, residential and support professionals eager to fulfil the potential that this opportunity offers, alongside their new Head Teacher.

We are situated in Brighton with views of the sea from our school, easily accessible by public transport. Our students are actively involved in their community, keen to learn and rewarding to work with. We have exciting plans to further enrich the school by developing a Hub to support Deaf learners and their families and carers in the local area as well as to promote a wider understanding of and engagement with Deaf culture in the wider community.

We are seeking a new Head Teacher who shares our optimism for the future of the school. You will provide inspiring, professional and purposeful leadership and continue to secure Hamilton Lodge’s success and improvement, ensuring high quality education and residential care for all its students.

If you are excited by this challenge and opportunity, we would love to hear from you. Please contact Martin Blair at Hays Leadership on 07736791138 or at martin.blair@hays.com for a private and confidential discussion about the role or to arrange a visit to the school. We look forward to receiving your application

Yours sincerely,

Paul Newbury
Chair of Trustees
