Create a job alert

Student wellbeing has become much more of a staple inclusion into the fabric of schools than I can ever remember from my own school days. It does seem however, that staff wellbeing is just slightly behind that curve and although I see examples everyday on job specs about the wellbeing support in place, I also hear too many stories from candidates saying how the reality feels very different.

Recently, the Director of Education is emerging as a pivotal position in both independent and academy schools. What does this role actually involve and what are schools typically looking for when they recruit for it?

Earlier this summer, I spent some time interviewing with other agencies. Honestly… it was humbling.
