Description

Pastoral Lead/Head of House 

We are looking to appoint a committed and inspiring teacher and pastoral leader to manage one of our four Houses. The House system is the central vehicle for student progress at Claremont. Heads of House play a leading role in helping our students achieve above and beyond what they thought possible during their time at school. We aim for “The Claremont Student” to grow in responsibility and make positive contributions to their community, both while at school and beyond. This is a middle management position that would particularly suit those seeking whole school experience and is supported through a comprehensive programme of CPD offered through the International Schools Partnership (ISP).

Heads of House at Claremont are expected to teach a 0.7 timetable. Applications are welcome specifically from those able to teach either Science or Modern Foreign Languages (Spanish)

A Claremont teacher has a deep love of learning, both for their students and themselves, and we welcome applications from candidates at any stage of their careers. We offer a stimulating and inspiring working environment, where learning is at the centre of everything that we do. As a proudly non-selective school, we look to ensure all pupils explore their talents fully and achieve their potential.  

Claremont Senior School is an independent school, which is Ofsted rated “Outstanding”.  The school is part of the International Schools Partnership, with a network of schools in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the Americas. There are excellent opportunities for career development within Claremont, and also in our wider network of schools across the globe.
