Head – Barrow Hills School – Surrey

The Governors of Barrow Hills School seek to appoint an exceptional individual to lead this forward-looking, highly regarded preparatory school situated in the Surrey hills.

Barrow Hills is a co-ed, 2-13, Catholic day school for 250 children. Set in 33 acres the School has excellent facilities including arguably one of the most advanced digital provisions in the country for this age group.

The exciting recent merger of our governing charity with the Bridewell Royal Hospital brings closer ties to King Edward’s, Witley. This merger allows the possibility of continued education from nursery to university across the two schools and on a practical basis, allows the children at Barrow Hills to access facilities beyond the reach of most stand alone preparatory schools.

Within the family of two schools, however, Barrow Hills continues to be an autonomous preparatory school preparing children at 11+ and 13+ for a broad range of senior schools, including King Edward’s.

You will lead Barrow Hills into this exciting stage in its history and consolidate its place as a leading preparatory school in the area, and will be supportive of the School’s Catholic ethos.

A competitive salary and benefits package is on offer, including a family house on site.

For further information and a full application pack, please contact Ms Jane Sonley, Bursar and Clerk to the Governors: jso@barrowhills.org
Closing date: Friday, 23rd October 2015.

Barrow Hills School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the position, including checks with past employers and the DBS. The School is an equal-opportunity employer. Registered charity no.1000190.
