This is an exceptional opportunity for an ambitious candidate. Fulham Prep School is a vibrant, popular and successful co-educational preparatory school educating children aged 4 to 13+. It has a strong family ethos and prides itself on nurturing each and every child, while being mindful of the increasingly competitive entry into the top senior schools in London and elsewhere.
It has grown exponentially since it was founded in 1996 by Jane Emmett, and is now one of the capital’s largest preparatory schools. The Pre-Prep is based at a different site and has its own Head, who reports to the Head of the Prep. The Governors are looking for a dynamic and strategic educationalist to take the school forward as it now enters its third decade.
You should have prior experience as a Head or Deputy Head, and have a track record of managing and developing staff, inspiring children and preparing them for senior school at either 11+ or 13+. Experience of independent education in London would be particularly helpful, as well as the ability to relate to and support our parents.
Demonstrable and highly effective communication skills are essential, since marketing the school and maintaining and expanding its strong links with feeder and senior schools will form an important part of the role.
