St Andrew’s Prep School is seeking to appoint a Deputy Head Academic (DHA) who will provide strategic direction and leadership of the academic provision in the Prep School. Reporting to the Head, the DHA is responsible for the successful organisation, administration and development of the academic life of the Prep School and will collaborate closely with the Deputy Head Academic of the Senior School. He/ she will also liaise with the Director of Admissions & Marketing in relation to student admissions and progression.
The role has a significant strategic element to it and the appointee will be expected to play a leading part in shaping the future of the School’s academic provision as we strive to provide a world-class education. In particular, the appointee will be involved in continuing to shape our Key Stage 3 curriculum; establishing and driving our digital learning platforms; and leading the academic parts of the School to ensure outstanding academic outcomes. This is a wide-ranging and complex role requiring a clear understanding of academic provision, management systems and leadership, ideally in a Prep School setting, within a Christian context.
The DHA will most likely be someone who has experience at Senior Management level in the independent sector who is seeking a fresh challenge. Alternatively, the role might suit an exceptional individual with experience gained as a Head of Department and who has an instinctive feel for School Leadership.
