Head of School

Saltus Grammar School, the largest co-educational independent school in Bermuda, is seeking a new Head of School. Founded in 1888 as a boys’ grammar school, Saltus became fully co-educational in 1991. While highly regarded as one of Bermuda’s premier schools, Saltus also enjoys an excellent reputation in the international community. The School currently offers a blend of the British National Curriculum and the North American curriculum. With 840 students who range from Foundation Year to Graduate Years, Saltus Grammar School strives to inspire a passion for learning and independent thinking through a commitment to academic excellence, personal integrity, and service to others.

The Head of School is accountable to the Board of Trustees and has overall responsibility for the leadership of the School – academic, administrative, and financial. The new Head of School will be an engaging and respected educational leader, with a track record of mentoring and developing faculty, revitalizing curriculum, encouraging students, and fostering a dynamic and healthy school community. The new Head of School will have significant administrative experience (including exposure to finance, fundraising, and strategic planning), ideally earned at the executive team level in an independent school. They will have demonstrated a commitment to academic excellence, and – most importantly – will be a person of unassailable integrity and character.
