Westbourne Academy is an inclusive academy. We support all students, regardless of starting point, to achieve their potential and develop the skills necessary for employment and life. The academy aims to encourage and help develop self-discipline and a positive attitude towards learning and progress, engaging students and staff fully through the academy core values of STAR (being Safe, Thoughtful, Accountable and Respectful).
We are seeking to appoint a highly effective Assistant Principal with the vision, drive and energy to play a major role in the development of the academy, which was judged good by Ofsted in 2019.
