Job description
Headington is seeking an inspirational and experienced person to lead our highly successful Hockey programme. Hockey is a prominent sport, played with enthusiasm and success by girls in every year group and throughout most of the academic year.
Headington is a vibrant and welcoming school set in 23 acres on the outskirts of Oxford. In an environment where individuals come first, Headington is renowned for its commitment to academic excellence, pastoral support and an impressive range of sports, music and the arts.
Headington is seeking an inspirational and experienced person to lead our highly successful Hockey programme. Hockey is a prominent sport, played with enthusiasm and success by girls in every year group and throughout most of the academic year. Our next Head of Hockey will have personal experience playing and / or coaching at a high level and passion for passing on their skills and knowledge to our girls. The two aims of the hockey programme are 1) hockey as a sport for life and 2) more national league players. We are looking for someone to continue making these everyday realities.
Our Head of Hockey must have coaching experience and qualifications, excellent organisational skills, a sense of humour, and a willingness to fully integrate into the wider school community. Whilst the leadership of the Hockey programme is the focus, a suitable candidate may combine this role with that of a PE teacher and there are opportunities to coach additional sports, and be involved in the pastoral and academic areas of life at Headington.
This is a full time, permanent position, starting in September 2024.
Headington School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Applicants must be able to provide evidence of having the right to live and work in the UK and must undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and DBS and barred lists checks. The School expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Headington School is an equal opportunities employer.
