School Counsellor

Queen's College, London is a leading independent day school for girls between the ages of 11 and 18, occupying four large historic houses on Harley Street in central London. Our outstanding Prep School, for girls aged 4 to 11, is situated in a separate building, just around the corner on Portland Place.  

As the first school in the UK to grant academic qualifications to women, Queen’s has a proud history of educating some of this country’s pioneering females. We are now one of the most high-achieving, diverse and forward-looking schools in London. 

At Queen's we aim to provide a happy and supportive environment and, consistent with our aim of developing each pupil individually, pastoral care is one of our greatest strengths. The ethos of the College ensures that all members of staff take responsibility for the pastoral welfare of the pupils within a civilised and tolerant community. 

We are looking to appoint an approachable and supportive School Counsellor to work with our pastoral team and provide one to one counselling for pupils. The role is a part-time (2-3 days per week during term time) from September 2021.

Applications will be considered when they are received by the College and interviews may be held at any stage. Early applications are warmly encouraged.

Queen’s College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
