The successful candidate will have a strong sense of fun, extensive experience of working in independent schools and will enjoy engaging with prospective, current and former pupils, teaching and non-teaching staff, parents and governors. They will have excellent IT skills, be adept at auditing marketing admissions data, analysing marketing and admissions patterns and implementing strategies which will enhance the School’s profile and pupil roll.

‘Knowing and Growing Children’ is the School’s new strapline, which articulates the warmth and strength of our diverse child-centred community in which children are at the centre of our thinking. Edge Grove provides children with 48 acres of beautiful estate, heritage buildings, wonderful facilities and the educational space for children to grow and develop. Our pupils feel a strong sense of belonging and pride in our community and come from a wonderful diversity of cultures and traditions. They devise the 16 core Values of the School and live within them. They develop independence and confidence as they move up through the School and develop the ten core skills identified by the World Economic Forum as those which will future-proof them for a future life and love of learning and fulfillment. We want children to develop their own unique character and creativity in pursuit of future happiness and success and in doing so to make their prep school days the best they can be.
