Job overview
Head of Secondary
We will be introducing Year 10 for the first time from August 2020, having recently been authorised by CAIE to be an examination centre. We are planning for this cohort to then undertake the IB Diploma Programme from August 2022. As such we are seeking someone familiar with CAIE and with the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme for this position.
This position may be of particular interest to an experienced IBDP Coordinator looking to take the next step into senior leadership at a developing school. A major part of this role initially will be to lead Norwich through the authorisation process for the IB Diploma programme.
Norwich is also working through the Membership and subsequent Accreditation processes with CIS, as such experience with the CIS accreditation process would also be an advantage.
With only around 60 students in Secondary from August 2020 and a new Secondary building being built, while also implementing new curricula, systems and process this is an exciting opportunity for a passionate and inspirational educator.
Suitable applications from all locations are welcome but those with local or regional expertise will be viewed favourably.
Benefits
Competitive salary, travel allowance, settling in allowance, free lunches, health insurance and others.
What we offer
- An ambitious, expanding, successful and vibrant place to work.
- State-of-the-art learning environment and facilities.
- Children who are bright, confident and eager to learn.
- A supportive working culture that focuses on positive learning behaviour and high expectations for all children.
- A senior leadership team that is committed to developing others.
Requirements
- A Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent, a post-graduate qualification in Education and Qualified Teacher Status (or equivalent).
- Desire to progress through Continual Professional Development opportunities.
- Appropriate high expectations of all children.
- Innovative and creative teaching practices.
- Being a team player with a positive, friendly disposition.

Norwich International School
Opened in August of 2014 Norwich and has established itself as a leading school in the community. With its comprehensive facilities and dedicated staff Norwich has grown from a brand-new school to one supporting over 250 children.
We are in the final planing stages for the building of our sports center and moving forward to the final part of our development plan as a combined British and IB curriculum school with full facilities for all age groups
A great place to see Norwich is to visit our website and Facebook page and familiarise yourself with the atmosphere and ethos of the school. You will also notice within the pages of the site the school’s close attachment to practices of Mindfulness and Thai Buddhism. An understanding and interest in these disciplines is essential for students and staff alike.
The school also recognises the steady influence of China in this part of the globe and since 2016 has included Mandarin lessons for all students.
