Assistant Head of EPA - Head of Drama

Required for September 2024

TLR2b

Ever dream of working for a headteacher who really understands your subject? In that case, come and lead the development of Drama at Magdalen College School, Brackley.

You’ll know your Boal from your Brecht; your Noh from your Kneehigh, and your Shared Experience from your Stanislavski. I’ll give you the chance to develop as a leader in a school where people matter, and where I see Drama as a key element in building passion, empathy and eloquence into future generations.

Magdalen College School has 475 years of history and a place at the centre of the Brackley community. As we enter a new chapter of our story under new leadership, we have an opportunity for a colleague who: 

• Loves working with young people
• Is motivated by a passion for their subject area within a broad curriculum
• Wants the best for every individual
• Is open to learning, reflection, feedback and self-improvement

In return we can offer: 

• A warm, welcoming, and ‘people-focused’ community of students, staff and parents
• A school with good behaviour where every subject is valued
• Caring, supportive and inspiring leadership

We are an increasingly diverse community and greatly value the contribution that colleagues from different backgrounds and with different experiences bring to our school.

I’d be delighted to speak to you about this opportunity and show you round before you apply. Please get in contact by email or phone 01280 846300.

Closing date: Tuesday, 7 May 2024 at 9am. (We reserve the right to interview and close this position early)

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment.
