Job overview

Abingdon School is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and versatile Partnership Coordinator to assist and support the Director of Partnerships. The Director of Partnerships oversees the development of Abingdon School in Partnership’s exciting educational and extracurricular activities and, in particular, the links with the local partnership of schools in Abingdon.  

The role of Partnership Coordinator will be fundamental in both creating and sustaining a successful town wide learning partnership covering schools across every sector and stage of education to help build opportunities for staff and students together.  This will be one of very few formal school partnerships across the country and comes at an exciting time for cross sector collaboration.

This post will be a part-time ‘term time plus’ role, which means that the post holder will be expected to work the 34 weeks of the Abingdon School year with an additional 5 weeks to be worked by arrangement with the Director of Partnerships.  As a guide, the role will mirror state school term time dates.

It is envisaged that the standard hours of work will be 8.30am to 3.00pm (with a 30 minute unpaid lunch break), Monday to Friday, although occasionally flexibility will be required.  We are open to part-time and flexible working arrangements.

The role will be offered on an initial three year fixed term contract with the possibility of extension.

Closing date:     Thursday 3 September 2020

Interview date:   Friday 18 September 2020

Abingdon combines over 750 years of history and tradition with a modern outlook.  It offers day and boarding with the senior school housing around 1070 students aged 11 to 18, of whom 360 are in the sixth form, and approximately 130 are boarders. There is also a preparatory school at Frilford, near Abingdon, for 215 students aged 4 - 13. The two establishments together form the Abingdon Foundation, an independent charity, governed according to a scheme approved by the Charity Commissioners. Full particulars can be found in the Independent Schools Year Book.

The School stands in beautiful grounds close to the centre of Abingdon, six miles south of Oxford. Day students are drawn from a region that includes the University and City of Oxford, a number of large scientific establishments such as those at Harwell and Culham, and a wide area of the Upper Thames Valley and the Berkshire Downs. A wider region supplies weekly boarders, and there is a thriving international community of full boarders.

Students are selected for entry by examination, and the curriculum is geared towards the academic pupil. The expectation is that the vast majority of students who enter the school proceed to university, with a significant number winning places at Oxford and Cambridge every year.

The School has developed considerably over the last half-century, and has benefitted from a major building programme, including a new arts centre and a multi-million pound sports centre. Recent additions include a superb science centre housing 21 teaching labs and a new sixth form centre, a library and art facilities which opened in 2018. Autumn 2020 saw the Computer Science and Business & Economics departments move into a purpose built new three-story building. New and refurbished boarding facilities as well as a flexible new dining pavilion were completed in Autumn 2023.

The strength of the teaching staff is seen as the key to Abingdon’s continuing success.  The Head seeks recruits of the highest possible standard, with a powerful professional vision and who are prepared to exert themselves wholeheartedly for the benefit of their pupils and the School.
