    Shortlist interviews scheduled for Tuesday 25th June

    We are enthusiastic about building a diverse team that mirrors the population of Scotland. We encourage applications from all backgrounds, especially those currently underrepresented such as individuals with disabilities, from minority ethnic groups, or from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

    An exciting opportunity is available for a motivated and passionate Head Teacher to join the team at Southdale Primary School and Early Learning and Childcare (ELC).

    The current school has a total of 24 sessions, with 11 classes accommodating 55 children in ELC. The management team includes a Head Teacher, Depute Head Teacher, and a Principal Teacher. Additionally, there are 6 Pupil Support Workers (PSWs) positioned throughout the school to provide whole-school support. The ELC staffing comprises 1 Early Years Officer, 5 Early Years Practitioners, and 2 PSWs.

    The vision for Southdale Primary School and ELC revolves around 'Paving the Path to New Horizons', embarking on a shared 'Journey to Success', establishing 'Strong Roots in Our Community', and fostering 'Knowledge and Understanding for the future'.

    Through self-assessment, the school has pinpointed several key strengths, including:

    • A warm and nurturing environment fostered by positive relationships and core values of Achievement, Fairness, Respect, and Responsibility.
    • A solid dedication to children's rights, particularly advocating for pupil voice.
    • The creation of an innovative curriculum aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.

    The school thrives on a strong community spirit and benefits from an engaged and forward-thinking Parent Council. This council collaborates closely with the school and works diligently to enhance the school environment and organize fundraising activities year-round.

    West Lothian Council is dedicated to bringing about transformative changes in how Education Services are delivered. These changes involve providing the necessary support and conducive environment for you to excel in your role and enhance your skills. Our commitment is exemplified by the council's attainment of the Investors in People Standard and our continuous pursuit of excellence in service delivery and enhancements.

    A relevant teaching qualification and registration with the General Teaching Council for Scotland are prerequisites for this role.

    This position falls under Regulated Work with Vulnerable Children and/or Protected Adults, as per the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act. Successful applicants will need to join the Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme Update check before starting employment, with the associated cost to be covered by the candidate.

    The fee for Full PVG Scheme Membership is £59, while Existing Member renewal costs £18.
