Job overview
Required from January or Easter 2020, I.B. Curriculum Manager.
A rare and unique opportunity has arisen to take on the leadership of the International Baccalaureate and its programmes in this UK state comprehensive school. The school has offered the Diploma since 1973 and was the first state school to do so. It was also the first to offer the IB Career Programme (IBCP) in 2010. Our mission is to provide an international education, underpinned by the IB mission and Learner Profile (see attached), through a broad, balanced and enriched education. The successful candidate will lead and manage the IB Diploma, supporting this cohort of students and managing the IBCP Co-ordinator and CAS Co-ordinator. He/she will also oversee the development of the IB philosophy throughout the school in order to make IB courses in the Sixth Form more of a natural choice. The successful candidate will report to our Director of Sixth Form in developing our outstanding Sixth Form curriculum offer.
The Anglo European School is a comprehensive school with a curriculum informed by a strong international dimension. The school also offers the National Curriculum of England and Wales as well as Advanced levels (A levels) in the sixth form. Students can also choose a combination of IB subjects with A levels. Baccalaureate principles inform all aspects of the school’s provision and we are a pilot school for the National Baccalaureate for England.
The Sixth Form itself is outstanding with overall progress consistently exceeding national averages, but especially on the IB Diploma with value added scores in the top 15% nationally. Student destinations include a range of high tariff universities across the UK, but distinctively also at institutions all around the world.
All members of the school’s staff support the unique aims and ethos of the school and participate in the extensive visits and exchanges programme.
The Anglo European School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

About Anglo European School
Anglo European School is a 11-19, co-educational comprehensive school situated in Ingatestone, Essex. It has approximately 1,415 students.
The school was opened in 1973 after the closure of a secondary modern school led locals to campaign to keep the school open and the Local Authority, Essex, decided to establish a school with a “European Dimension”.
Anglo European School serves local needs but also draw students from across Essex and parts of London. In 1977 it became the first UK state school to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma and in 1995 the first comprehensive school to become a specialist Language college. In 2005 the school established the first co-headship model in a state secondary school.
As a centre of excellence for language learning, the school offers Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Spanish as well as English as an Additional Language and Latin. Up until age 16 all students study two languages other than English.
In the sixth form, students must study one language. They have a choice of A-levels or an opportunity to study the International Baccalaureate Diploma. There is also the chance to study selected parts of the IB Diploma with A-levels. In addition, the International Baccalaureate Career Programme provides an internationally recognised vocational qualification.
