Head of English

Ripley Court School is a popular, independent, co-educational preparatory school for 3-11 year olds set in 19 acres of beautiful Surrey countryside including extensive playing fields and a Forest School. The school celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2018. This year represents an exciting time for the school following the merger with Reed’s School in November 2019.

We would welcome applications from candidates who hold a teaching qualification or, alternatively, a good honours graduate who would like to work towards achieving this.

The successful candidate will demonstrate an ability to support our School ethos by not only providing excellent teaching, but support pupils’ wider development with excellent pastoral care and a willingness to become involved in the School's extra-curricular programme.

Full details including a job description and application form can be found on our website or, alternatively, by emailing hr@reeds.surrey.sch.uk
