Founding Principal

Prince of Wales Island International Primary School - Founding Principal

This is an exciting opportunity to lead the development of what we believe will become the primary school of choice in Penang. The school is under construction ready for opening in September 2019. The new Principal will be expected to commence his/her contract in September 2018 with an option, by negotiation, to start in January 2019. He or she will be heavily involved in the set-up of the new campus, recruitment of staff as well as marketing initiatives in student recruitment before the new academic year commences.

As the leader of a new school, the successful candidate will provide direction, inspiration and guidance to a new team in the delivery of the school’s objectives. She/he will show leadership and moral values through action and example in her/his daily conduct.
