Headteacher

We are looking for an enthusiastic, inspiring, and dedicated Headteacher to join us at Virtus, the British Sixth-Form College. This is a wonderful opportunity to lead an exciting new venture, in a role with a great focus on the academic running of the school. Deputy and Academic Head's applications are welcome. 

Virtus, The British Sixth Form College, is the first Sixth Form College in Spain, to offer a British education in small class sizes, before the student's university journey. Founded in 2016, we have since helped our students reach their maximum potential, both on a personal and academic level, by providing a very personalized and holistic approach to education. 

Over the past seven years, the project has evolved and expanded substantially. Virtus is moving to a prime location in Madrid, La Moraleja, starting September 2023. We are progressively expanding our capacity from 30 students in our current premises to a maximum cohort of 80 students, accounting for 40 Year 12's and 40 Year 13s. Our mission is to maintain our innovative and personalized approach to British Sixth Form education as the key to every student's success and well-being. 

Virtus is looking for a full-time Headteacher, ideally with a small side teaching role in one of our offered subjects, to lead our Sixth-Form College. The role covers the holistic leadership of the school, the implementation of our vision, and the materialization of the roadmap strategy we carry out with each student. The Headteacher will have special support in areas such as admissions and budgeting, shifting the focus to a more academic role. For this reason, we are looking for candidates with a strong passion for education and a desire to actively participate in our educational program. Academic and Deputy Head's applications are welcome. The role has great growth potential, with increased responsibility and independence over the next two years within the position.
