Vice Principals 


KGV is seeking to appoint two outstanding school leaders to contribute to its further development.  The Senior Leadership Team consists of the Principal, four Vice Principals and a Business Manager.   All VPs have their own set of responsibilities and work together as a close knit team.  Two promotions to principalships in 2011 and one for August 2012 show that the team is well supported and of a very high quality.  This is a tremendous opportunity for an ambitious school leader.

The successful candidates are likely to:

  • be school leaders committed to collaboration and working together
  • be interested in student development and learning
  • have very high personal and professional expectations
  • enjoy working in an international environment with some of the best students in the world.
  • be creative, flexible, sensitive and embrace the opportunities presented by change
  • fully support the school’s vision statement.

 

We are interested in these skills and attributes not just your ability to complete managerial tasks !  Your specific leadership role will be negotiated with the rest of the team on appointment. Link to Further Information below
