We are looking for an inspirational and approachable leader, passionate about providing excellence in education, to lead the College on the next stage of its journey.
‘Inspiring knowledgeable, enquiring and caring global citizens through excellence in education’
We would like to hear from you if you share our vision, ethos and commitment to valuing each child as an individual – providing opportunities for all to achieve within a nurturing environment.
As a state day and boarding school, offering the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma as the sole study option post sixteen, with the Middle Years Programme and GCSEs being followed in the lower years, this role will be both challenging and rewarding. If you aren’t familiar with the IB Diploma or haven’t worked within a boarding environment don’t be put off. As long as you possess the ambition and qualities we are looking for we still want to hear from you. You will be supported by a dedicated Governing Body, SLT, teaching staff, operational team and students with an excellent and open attitude to learning.
