Head of Sixth Form

Cheltenham

Required for September 2025
Relocation assistance available where appropriate

This is an excellent opportunity to gain experience at a senior level in one of the world’s leading schools, and to play a key part in shaping the direction of the Sixth Form for a new chapter in the College’s overall strategic development.

The Head of Sixth Form leads this Division in College in close partnership with other Divisions but also with a degree of autonomy, promoting the Sixth Form experience and our support of preparation for life beyond both internally and externally to pupils and parents.

Equivalent to an Assistant Head, this role carries significant responsibility and scope for professional development, holistically overseeing pupil needs and experiences where the academic, welfare and co-curricular aspects intersect, line managing the tutors and Assistant Heads of Sixth form, IB Diploma Co-ordinator and Head of the Professional Guidance Centre.

We are looking for a charismatic, outward-facing and energetic leader with strong management experience to inspire and lead the Sixth Form of over 300 girls, working alongside the team of Houseparents in ensuring each pupil flourishes during her Sixth Form years, and makes a successful transition to life beyond College. These are the largest year groups in College, and pupils are accommodated in bespoke Sixth form houses.

It is also expected that the successful candidate will be an outstanding classroom practitioner, with a reduced timetable in recognition of the demands of this role.

As one of the world’s leading schools, and with a strong pioneering heritage, our aim is to embody excellence, independence and empowerment in the education of young women. You will join a friendly and supportive community of committed professionals who believe that girls are at the heart of all we do. We are ambitious for their futures, collectively and individually, and have been so for 170 years.
