Deputy Headteacher (Pastoral)

The Governors of this heavily oversubscribed and successful school would like to appoint a strong, committed and experienced Pastoral leader to the position of Deputy Headteacher. The Deputy Head (Pastoral) is a key member of the Senior Leadership Team and must be committed to the school’s ethos, aims and strategic direction. You will be able to provide robust strategic leadership of behaviour, attendance, inclusion and safeguarding, leading a team of Assistant Headteachers and Pastoral leaders. We expect all our Senior Leaders to lead with integrity, purpose and intent, based directly on achieving the Christian mission and vision of the school and being guided unequivocally by its values. The Deanery Church of England High School is an 11-18 school at the heart of the local community in Wigan. We are a successful and heavily oversubscribed school of around 1450 pupils with a thriving and growing Sixth Form. Serving the Diocese of Liverpool and the parishes of the Wigan Deanery, we aim to provide an education for life, enabling all of our community to flourish and live life to the full. Although we would prefer to appoint for Easter 2025, Governors would consider delaying the appointment to September 2025 for the right candidate. To register your interest for the role, please visit
