Headteacher
Willow Brook Primary School, Keyworth
Growing bright young minds. Creating unforgettable childhoods.
At Willow Brook, we believe primary education should be exciting.
Our children don't just learn about the world. They explore it. They create. They perform. They investigate. They experience. Whether it's a Harry Potter exhibition, a residential adventure, a World Cup competition, or a curriculum topic brought vividly to life, we work hard to make every child's primary years memorable, successful and full of possibility.
The retirement of our existing Headteacher means we are looking for a new Headteacher to lead the next chapter of our story.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a thriving school with a talented staff team, supportive families and governors who are ambitious for the future.
We are looking for a leader who understands what makes Willow Brook special and who shares our belief that children thrive when learning is engaging, creative and inspiring. We want someone who will champion our distinctive curriculum and protect the spirit of adventure that sits at the heart of school life, while bringing fresh ideas and vision for the future.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
