What our students say:
Could you be our next Chaplain?
'We are looking for our next school chaplain to come and work at our school, which has a caring environment and a great group of staff. We think our students are hard-working and offer support to each other. We need a school chaplain who is approachable and positive, with amazing communication skills, who is a good listener and will support our students at stressful times. It is important to us that our chaplain will help the spiritual life of the school to grow.' (Written by our RE Ambassadors)
The role of Chaplain at St Mary's is a highly valued role within the school, which holds at its heart the mission, 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me to be a safe, happy, proud person who flourishes in life'. The person appointed will be faith-filled and enthusiastic in their commitment to inspire the school community to live out its mission as a Catholic school.
The governors of this popular high school are therefore looking to recruit a committed and inspiring chaplain to support the faith lives of our students and staff and to ensure that the Catholic faith of St Mary's permeates all aspects of school life. The successful candidate will be a practising Catholic with a deep sense of faith commitment and have an approachable and friendly way of relating to young people. The person appointed to this post will need to have diverse skills and interests underpinned by a well-articulated faith. The nature of the role will require the person to have a strong faith and commitment to Catholic education.
