What skills and experience we're looking for

Varndean School requires an enthusiastic, committed and outstanding Lead Professional for PE.

What the school offers its staff

The busy and productive PE department forms a major part of the school’s core curriculum offer. The new appointee will be given extensive opportunities to build on the department's many strengths and help fulfil the school’s ambitious academic agenda. This is an excellent opportunity for an aspiring Head of PE. Expertise in rugby and cricket while not essential would be an advantage.

In return we offer tailored, research led professional development that will enable you to realise your potential and achieve your personal career ambitions.

Varndean is an excellent place to work. Ofsted in 2022 described the school’s “inspirational leaders”, “expert” teachers, “impressive” pupils and the “exceptionally strong” staff training. We hope you will want to pursue an application further.

Commitment to safeguarding

We welcome applications from all parts of our community as we aspire to have a staff body that matches the social and cultural diversity of our student intake.
