Head of Year

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Head of Year position at our Sevenoaks campus.

The purpose of the post is to monitor and support the academic and pastoral progress of students at our Sevenoaks campus, while supporting their well-being and conduct and promoting the highest levels of behaviour, attendance and punctuality. 

The Head of Year will lead a team of tutors in implementing and maintaining a system of academic monitoring, as well as monitoring the behaviour of students in the school, referring students to the Assistant/Deputy Headteacher as appropriate.

The ideal candidate will be adept at supporting, promoting and monitoring the personal development and academic progress of each individual student. The post would suit an experienced teacher who has obtained a degree in any discipline relating to their teaching specialism. We welcome applications from within the UK or abroad.

Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys is an expanding and rapidly improving selective grammar school. It is undergoing a period of transformational change benefiting from a multi-million pound investment in Tunbridge Wells and a brand new building at our Sevenoaks campus, which opened in September 2021.

Staff benefit from a positive working environment, with strong support for professional development and specialist teaching rooms. We aim for high standards and the pursuit of academic excellence, helping every student to reach their full potential through the development of skills, concepts and knowledge, within the framework of a caring community. Relationships between staff and students are based on trust, mutual respect and a determination to succeed.
