The Role
**About Strathallan School**

Set within 153 acres of beautiful Perthshire campus, Strathallan School has been doing education differently for over 100 years. Strathallan’s reputation as a leading co-educational boarding and day school is longstanding, attracting pupils from across the UK and around the world with outstanding programmes in academics, sports and the arts.

There are around 600 pupils of ages 5-18, divided between Strathallan Prep School and Strathallan Senior School. There are three senior Girls' Houses, four senior Boys' Houses and a junior boarding house, and approximately 65% of pupils are full boarders.

The School is situated in the beautiful Earn Valley on a self-contained wooded estate of 153 acres at the edge of the village of Forgandenny. Perth is the nearest town some ten minutes away by car and access to the motorways puts Edinburgh (45 mins), Glasgow (1 hr) and the Scottish Highlands within easy reach.
