Application Process for the Role of Head of Bedstone College
A tremendous opportunity to lead a delightful school with great aspirations and a child-centred approach.
|
The School prides itself on empowering each pupil to achieve their potential in everything they do. The focus is to prepare pupils to cope with the many and varied challenges in modern society, ready to leave the school as well-rounded individuals. This includes academic, sporting and other extra-curricular activities.
Applicants should have strong communication skills, resilience and must demonstrate a commitment to the School’s ethos.
Founded in 1948, the School has an enviable history. As you will read elsewhere on our website, kindness is at the heart of the Bedstone Family – the school motto, “Caritas”, translated literally, means charity. The School values tolerance and encourages pupils to be confident enough to respect each other’s opinions and views whilst putting others before themselves.
Set among south Shropshire’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the college enjoys over 40 acres of surrounding countryside for its extensive campus of modern buildings and playing fields.
This role presents a wonderful opportunity to lead, motivate and develop our wonderful School and staff whilst maintaining a caring, welcoming, and inclusive learning environment.
Start date September 2021.
Closing date for applications: 12 noon, Friday 9th April
First stage interviews: week commencing Monday 12th April
Second stage interviews: week commencing Monday 19th April
