About Haringey

Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.

Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.

About the Role

This is a unique and influential leadership opportunity to shape the educational experiences and outcomes of some of Haringey’s most vulnerable children.

As Assistant Head of Haringey Virtual School, you will lead the delivery of the local authority’s duties for children with a social worker, children in kinship care and previously in care. This is a high-impact, 12-month fixed-term role where you will provide strategic oversight and system leadership to improve inclusion, attendance, attainment, inclusion, and engagement across the borough working directly with schools and different partners.

You will work at the crossing point of education and children’s services – ensuring that vulnerable children are visible, prioritised and effectively supported within education systems. This includes at system-level identifying and reducing barriers to learning, supporting and challenging schools to deliver high-quality inclusive practice, and embedding trauma-informed, relational approaches.

A key part of the role will involve contributing education expertise into child protection processes, supporting schools and driving forward strategic priorities to strengthen the local offer for vulnerable learners. This is a rare opportunity to influence system-wide practice and deliver meaningful, lasting change for children and young people.

This is a highly collaborative, multi- agency team that values innovation, strong relationships and the voices of children, with a shared commitment to improving life chances and raising aspirations for our vulnerable children.

About You

You are an experienced and credible senior leader with a strong track record of improving outcomes for vulnerable children. Passionate about inclusion and belonging, you bring both strategic vision and hands-on expertise to working across education and children’s services. You thrive in complex, multi-agency environments and use your influence to drive meaningful change – ensuring children with a social worker are visible, supported and able to succeed.
