Start date to be negotiated
One of the country’s leading academic schools, Queen Elizabeth’s Barnet blends a distinctive heritage and proud traditions with an innovative, forward-looking approach to providing a state education like no other to 1,250 boys aged 11-18. Queen Elizabeth’s is one of relatively few state schools in the UK to have a Combined Cadet Force (CCF). Established in 1992, ours is sponsored by the Corps of Royal Engineers, with the Regular Army providing support in training and administration.
We have a vacancy for a part-time SSI. Pupils apply to join the CCF in Year 9 and many go on to take CCF leadership responsibilities in their senior years at the School. They enjoy a wide variety of activities including overnight camps, expeditions and extensive training.
The SSI is responsible for the routine administration of the CCF under the direction of the Contingent Commander. The post holder is expected to live up to the values and standards of the UK military as well as those of the School. The ideal candidate will have strong organisational and communication skills, be flexible, highly organised with a professional attitude and enjoy working within a busy school community. Competent IT/keyboard and administrative skills are required.
There will be the opportunity to undergo further training. Further information and an application form can be obtained on our website: https://www.qebarnet.co.uk/recruitment/ or from the Headmaster’s office.
Closing date: 0830 hours (GMT) on Monday 30 September 2019. Applications will be assessed as they are received and interviews may occur at any stage during the recruitment process.
Queen Elizabeth’s is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure & Barring Service. We are an equal opportunities employer.

About Queen Elizabeth's School
In 1573 Elizabeth I issued a Charter “for the establishment of the Free Grammar School of Queen Elizabeth in Barnet for the education, bringing up and instruction of boys in Grammar and other learning and the same to continue for ever.” Today QE remains a non-denominational, non-fee-paying, selective School with a mission of producing confident, able and responsible young men and, as such, continues to reflect the essential tenets of our Tudor Charter. The School has a reputation for academic excellence and our expectations are high: QE boys excel at A Level and go on to places at leading universities, including Oxford and Cambridge.
To understand the factors behind our success, it is important to grasp two essential characteristics of the School. Firstly, QE is a meritocracy. We offer open access, welcoming boys on academic merit, irrespective of parental income, residential location or religious background. The resultant ability range and broad cultural mix of our pupils provide an optimum educational environment in which to prepare boys for life in the 21st Century.
Secondly, it should be clearly understood that, in line with our stated mission above, our aspirations at Queen Elizabeth’s School extend well beyond examination results. A broad range of enriching extra-curricular activities is offered in areas such as Sport, Music and Drama, and we expect all boys to participate in the corporate life of the School and to go on to make a serious contribution to society.
We purposely combine old and new in pursuit of delivering the best possible education for our boys. Our ambitious curriculum is progressive, yet does not lose sight of traditional academic values. And as an ancient School supported by foundation and charitable trusts, we are able to offer excellent, modern facilities on a superb 30-acre landscaped site. The School is situated a short distance from its original Tudor building and borders on Hertfordshire’s green belt. Excellent public and private transport links provide easy access to the School.
