Leader of Learning (Head of Year)

Required for September 2024
TLR2c

Our mission is to make every young person the best possible version of themselves. As Leader of Learning you’ll have the chance to inspire up to 270 young people as the head of a team of tutors, and with the support of our fabulous Student Services team.

Magdalen College School has 475 years of history and a place at the centre of the Brackley community. As we enter a new chapter of our story under new leadership, we have an opportunity for a colleague who: 

  • Loves working with young people
  • Is motivated by a passion for their subject area within a broad curriculum
  • Wants the best for every individual
  • Is open to learning, reflection, feedback and self-improvement

In return we can offer: 

  • A warm, welcoming, and ‘people-focused’ community of students, staff and parents
  • A school with good behaviour where every subject is valued
  • Caring, supportive and inspiring leadership

We are seeking:

- A colleague who will fit our ‘people-focussed’ school and engages students, colleagues and parents with empathy and warmth.

The ability to teach RE, Food & Nutrition, or PCSHE would be an advantage but not essential.

We are an increasingly diverse community and greatly value the contribution that colleagues from different backgrounds and with different experiences bring to our school.

I’d be delighted to speak to you about this opportunity and show you round before you apply. Please get in contact by email or phone 01280 846300.
