Head

Exeter School is one of the leading independent co-educational day schools in the country and the Sunday Times’ ‘South West Independent Secondary School of the Year 2018’.

Educating 925 pupils aged 7 to 18, it is oversubscribed at 11+ and academically ambitious, but down-to-earth and unpretentious, offering pupils a breadth of co-curricular opportunities in a warm and supportive environment.

The School prides itself not only on its intellectual achievement and happy, purposeful atmosphere, but also on the value for money it offers local parents. The school itself is in a strong financial position with no outstanding debts.

Located in one of the UK’s most vibrant, fast-growing and historically interesting cities, close to the coastline and spectacular countryside, Exeter School offers a particularly attractive environment to live, work and learn.

Mr Bob Griffin is retiring as Head in July 2020 after 17 years of outstanding service. The Governors seek a new Head who is a strategic thinker and a collaborative leader with gravitas and humility. The successful candidate will possess excellent communication skills, a keen business sense and the ability to take the School forward whilst maintaining its distinctive culture and ethos.
