Candidate profile

SPGS is seeking to appoint a Deputy Head, Director of Innovation. The Deputy Head Director of Innovation at St Paul’s Girls’ School will be a visionary leader, driving the school's commitment to cutting-edge educational practices. This role involves shaping and enhancing digital literacy and learning across the entire school community, ensuring that St Paul's remains at the forefront of pedagogical advancements. By engaging with both internal and external stakeholders, the Director of Innovation will harness the best ideas and practices within the education sector to elevate the school's offerings.

A key responsibility of this role is to align innovation initiatives with the school's strategic vision while also proactively seeking out new opportunities that can contribute to the school's development. The Director of Innovation will serve as a bridge between St Paul’s and the broader educational landscape, fostering collaborations that bring fresh perspectives and tools into the school environment.

The school

St Paul’s Girls’ School is one of the country’s leading independent schools for girls aged 11-18, with approximately 820 students. It is an extraordinary school, offering a classical yet forward-thinking education, rooted in a love of academic discovery and enriched by a broad co-curricular programme, nurturing wellbeing provision and a strong commitment to partnerships and community initiatives. Aspirations and achievements go well beyond what one would normally expect from a school, making St Paul’s Girls’ School an exciting, lively, and stimulating place in which to work.

Students want to make a difference, and many go on to roles tackling some of the greatest challenges facing people and planet. Respect for environmental sustainability is expected of all staff, both in terms of minimising use of resources in daily operations and supporting the school’s aim of preparing students fully for life and work in the mid-21st century.

Full details of the school, including our curriculum and public exam results, are available on our website

Further information about the role and to apply can be found on our website. Please submit your applications before the closing date. Applications will not be considered without a completed application form. Please use your own words when writing your supporting statement. While we are a digitally forward-looking school, we are mindful of the importance of authenticity in education and would far prefer to hear your unique voice through any application you may choose to make. We recommend that candidates apply as soon as possible since applications will be reviewed as they are received, and interviews arranged on a rolling basis.

Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and overseas police checks

St Paul’s Girls’ School is a “registered body” under the Police Act 1997 because employment here involves access to children under the age of 18. This post will require an enhanced DBS check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly Criminal Records Bureau) before we can confirm an offer of employment. Unless you are a member of the DBS Update Service you will need to apply for a new disclosure, even if you already hold one. Former members of staff who are not on the Update Service who re-join us also require fresh disclosures, unless less than three months have passed between their leaving and their re-employment date. If you have lived or worked abroad for a period of 3 months or more during the past 10 years you will also need to provide appropriate paperwork, such as a police certificate of good conduct, from the countries you have lived in.

Safeguarding guidelines

St Paul’s Girls’ School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). We expect all staff to share this commitment.

St Paul’s Girls’ School welcomes applications from all sectors of the community as we aspire to attract staff that match the social and cultural diversity of our pupil intake. We seek to offer fair and inclusive employment policies, interview and arrangements that avoid bias and support all applicants and staff equally.

Closing date: Wednesday 18 September 2024.

Interviews: W/C Monday 23 September 2024.
