Headship for rural schools
Rural schools are often at the heart of the community they serve. This means that the headteacher's role is particularly significant, as they will be both community leader and head of teaching and learning. Rural schools have a strong family feel, and headteachers like the fact that they can maintain close contact with children. Find out more about headship in a rural school.
